Look in 4Dgifts. Use icut to make your screen dumps in sgi image format.
Then use tops to convert it to PostScript. tops preserves 1, 2, 4, or 8
colors in the PostScript output leaving it up to the PostScript device to
convert those colors into b/w. It also gives you control over the half-tone
screens.
