In summary, a PS to PDF converter is a software tool that converts PostScript (PS) files to Portable Document Format (PDF) files. It supports a wide range of languages and there are free options available, but they may have limited features. Most converters can convert multiple files at once, but the reverse conversion (PDF to PS) is not as widely supported. It is important to keep a copy of the original PS file if you anticipate needing to convert it back in the future.

Does anyone know of a good software that can make this conversion?
It needs to support all languages, since most of my documents will be in Hebrew.

Thanks,
Chen
