[comp.sys.mac.misc] Freedom of Press

I was wondering if someone could shed some light on two new software products.
From what I gather from a few small ads, FREEDOM OF PRESS and ULTRASCRIPT claim to convert postscript documents to non-postscript printers.  However, there is a considerable price difference between the two products, (Freedom of Press -
$259, and Ultrascript - $115.)
        -Can anybody compare and contrast these two programs and suggest which one I should purchase? 
        -Ultrascript comes with its own typefaces, so does this mean that I cannot continue to properly use the complete Deskwriter font collection that I purchased along with my new HP Deskwriter? How does Freedom of Press handle the font situation? 
        -Do these postscript conversions greatly slow down operations?
        -Are both of these products compatible with my MAC SE (2.5MB RAM) and HP Deskwriter?

Any info would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!
