An OpenSource project like ghostscript is probably the kind of solution
your are looking for

The quick path should be to create an NSTask to invoke it and display
the result (a PDF file)
A longer one will be to incorporate it in your app (?) as long as
your project is compatible with the ghostcript license

There is also a shareware named MacGhostView at
