I disagree.  To fit with the other HOWTOs available in the internet, a
plain text version must be available (of course with a pointer that
only the PS version shows everything) in the first instance.

Another possibility is to have a HOWTO in PS form and an additional
FAQ in text form, but this is extra work...
