Howdy,

Are you saying that the figure IS (incorrectly) rotated when using  
the ps4pdf engine? This is what I have in my version of the engine:

#!/bin/sh
basefname=$(basename "$1" .tex)
# process the figures
latex --shell-escape "$1"
dvips -Ppdf -o "${basefname}-pics.ps" "${basefname}.dvi"
ps2pdf13 -dAutoRotatePages=/None "${basefname}-pics.ps" "${basefname}- 
pics.pdf"
pdfcrop "${basefname}-pics.pdf"
/bin/mv "${basefname}-pics-crop.pdf" "${basefname}-pics.pdf"
/bin/rm "${basefname}-pics.ps" "${basefname}.dvi"
#process the file
pdflatex --shell-escape "$1"

where the option "-dAutoRotatePages=/None" to ps2pdf13 should keep  
the rotation from happening.

I don't think I'm seeing a rotation here.

Good Luck,
