While that is true, I bet if you change your PDF file to a .PS Illustrator won't open it any more and nor will anything else. PDF files are based arround PostScript files and do have some similarities but they ARE NOT postscript files any more than your Ford Focus is a Model-T, based on it yes, looks like it, to some degree, but is it?
