You might look at http://bmeps.sourceforge.net/. I haven't used it, so
I can't speak to how well it works. I'd hesitate to use jpeg2ps if you
are starting with a bitmap, since bitmaps are lossless and jpegs are
lossy. You can use the GIMP or whatever to convert your bmp to a png,
which is also lossless, and then use bmeps to convert the png directly
to eps.
Good luck!
