The only way to "view" an undistilled ps file is thru a text editor of some type, which wil not give you a graphic preview. You need to distill it.

Brisque allows you to preview pdf and postscript.

Your right - you can preview if it's been ripped.

Actually you can preview .ps and .pdf files even before they are ripped on the Brisque. It is darn slow though. :?
