I would go for dvips to get psfiles. If you can't use the ps files
directly, run them through ghostscript.
gs -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=tifflzw -sOutputFile=outfile.tif -dBATCH -r300
file.ps
Do this only with one page-ps-files. If you cant use tifflzw try any of
the other formats. If nothing else helps ppm and convert these again to
some windows format. ("convert file.ppm file.bmp" for example).
The -r300 gives a resolution of 300dpi if to large or to grainy adjust
that. As an afterthought convert can probably do it directly ps to bmp.
(It will call gs to do the work though and you cant specify the
resolution that easy).
Result will be a tif (or wahtever) picture of the whole page. Use any
graphicsprogram to cut the part you want.
Oh.... I'm asuming some Linux (any Unix) System here. If it's windows
get ghostscript for windows and the gs-line applies just the same.
convert for windows will probably not be available (It's part of
ImageMagick). But try any windows program for the conversion.
gs --help (on windows, dosbox maybe gs -? or gs -h ) gives you a list of
outputformats that version of gs can do.
