"Reading"  a  PostScript  actually means executing it, and it is a
FORTH-like  language  so you'd need to write an interpreter for it
etc.  (Not  trivial  if  you  want  to  support  all  the language
features...)

PDF  does  not  require  a full-blown PS interpreter, but it's not
trivial to parse in the general case (encryption, compression...),
and  you'd  have  to  support a lot of things to get to be able to
read most PDFs.

Regards,
   Gabriele.
