Here I'm confused: on my setup (GhostScript installed by i-Installer  
first, when installing gwTeX, and then MacTeX/TeXLive-2007 installed  
on top of it), ps2pdf is not a symlink as I thought but a file  
identical to ps2pdf13 and containing:

	#!/bin/sh
	# $Id: ps2pdf13 6300 2005-12-28 19:56:24Z giles $
	# Convert PostScript to PDF 1.3 (Acrobat 4-and-later compatible).

	exec ps2pdfwr -dCompatibilityLevel=1.3 "$@"

while ps2pdf14 contains:

	#!/bin/sh
	# $Id: ps2pdf14 6300 2005-12-28 19:56:24Z giles $
	# Convert PostScript to PDF 1.4 (Acrobat 5-and-later compatible).

	exec ps2pdfwr -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 "$@"
