 is simple:
<div class="">I have copied the part of my “master” file which seems relevant and pasted in two figures, the first in straight pstricks, the second in pst-slides 3D.</div>

<div class="">I understood from your quick example that putting the line \usepackage[monotone]{pstricks} before my pstricks file calls would make everything monochrome, so this is what I did in the preamble.  (I kept the \documentstyle{book} because perhaps
 this is the problem—but I hope not!).</div>
