It's a script that's supposed to be included with Ghostscript.

"ps2pdf is implemented as a very small command script (batch file) that invokes Ghostscript, selecting a special "output device" called pdfwrite. In order to use ps2pdf, the pdfwrite device must be included in the makefile when Ghostscript was compiled; see the documentation on building Ghostscript for details: this is currently the case on all platforms, in Ghostscript as we distribute it."

There's also a online converter.

I haven't tried either one, so don't know how well they work.

You posted the same question in another forum and got pretty much the same answer, looks like you get around.
