One way is to use "recode" as your ASCII_FILTER -- this will
not convert text to PostScript, but rather send the raw data.

But it seems that PostScript files are not handled at all.
Please create a log (see handbook.html) and post it here.

The problem ghostscript is having with certain files ("typecheck
in closefile") is weird... Maybe the gs build process went wrong.
Do you use a package or did you compile it yourself?
Some problems might be caused by people replacing the "mktemp"
calls with "mkstemp" without realizing that the semantics are
different.
