Have you tried printing to a file and going from there? From what
I've seen, M$ print-to-file is essentially postscript with an extra
line at the top. If you chop that out, so that the first line begins
with something like "%!PS-Adobe-2.0", you should be able to run
ps2epsi to generate encapsulated PS. Printing to a file from
OpenOffice.org should be exactly a postscript file.
I've never worked with transparent objects before, though (at least
not in postscript), so I don't know if this will be any better than
what you've tried already.
