But Heiko Oberdiek wrote the epstopdf package which can convert EPS files to PDF. So: use it! But you have to remove all those [dvips] options. And I mean: remove. Nothing needs to be set instead. LaTeX packages of today automatically determine which engine (tex, pdfTeX, XeTeX, LuaTeX) is going to use it.

Does it work with that name "lm"? I've always used
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{lmodern}
Anywya, it should replace the obsolete line:
\usepackage{ae,aecompl}
