In general, I think it is pretty straight forward to go from PDF to postscript, and PDF seems easier to access for Windows users, so if you can store a PDF file as your displayable format then I don't think you need to also store the postscipt.
There are occasions, however, when PDF output isn't an option and so postcript is necessary. For example, I have yet to find a way to get TeX ducuments which include TeXdraw diagrams into PDF without losing all the graphics. Does anyone know if gs or something similar is available for windows?
