Is there any way to convert .ps to .pdf every time automatically as a .ps is downloaded onto a Mac machine? (Using Mountain Lion 10.8)

  • can Automator perform this task?
  • convert and then delete the .ps

It's annoying that it has to convert from .ps to .pdf in preview every time I open the file, and quick preview doesn't work on .ps.

You could use the Folder Action for that.

Right click on to your download folder

select Folder Action Set up:

Choose Covert PostScript to pdf action.

done

If you feel like modifying the script go ahead.

You could set up Acrobat Distiller with a watched folder, or use Automator with it. This gives you better control over the conversion options, as you could specify the .joboptions.
