Of course, PDF uses the display model of Postscript but does not have  
the programming aspects (of Postscript).  I don't believe Preview can  
handle Postscript files that utilise the programming aspects in  
particular ways.  So there will be some Postscript files (usually  
hand written) that cannot be successfully converted to PDF.

Cheers,
