So there's no need for ifpdf and \DeclareGraphicsExtensions that
someone sent me?

I've been creating the grahics standalone, using the following (Windows) script:
latex %1.tex
dvips -E %1.dvi -o %1.ps
epstool --copy --bbox %1.ps %1.eps
epstopdf %1.eps
It's a variant of the scripts from
<http://www.tug.org/PSTricks/main.cgi?file=pdf/pdfoutput>.

Thanks for the help,
