Output Postscript and Plain Text from SGML

I need to batch convert a couple of thousand XML documents a day
interchangeably to Postscript (XML-> Postscript) and plain text (XML-> text)
on a Unix box.  DSSSL seems like a good start, but how do I finish?   Is
there a Postscript backend for Jade or can I convert TeX to Postscript?  I'm
considering writing some Perl to convert the flow object tree to MIF and
processing through FrameMaker, but there must be an easier way.  I need
excellent table and shading capabilities.
