Howdy,

If your figures involve eps figures of any kind or use pstricks you  
can simply compile with latex->dvips->ps2pdf (simpdftex latex) by  
either changing to ``TeX and Ghostscript'' and compiling or, better,  
putting the line

%%!TEX TS-program = latex

as the first line of a document which will tell TeXShop to use the  
latex->dvips->ps2pdf path.

Good Luck,
