I think GNUStep uses a version of Display PostScript, not Display PDF.  
I wouldn't be so sure that its NSImage (or whatever pdf2tiff uses) is 
any good at loading PDFs.  If you want to rasterize PDFs, you should 
look into Ghostscript ( http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/ ) or something 
of that nature.

That barely has anything to do with the question, PyObjC, or PDFs  :)
