Henry,

You do not need to use pdflatex and you do not need to convert
PSTricks pictures into EPS format: you can use ps4pdf and get the pdf
output directly. Please, have a look at:

I hope this helps,

Paul

PS:  If you want, I can send you an example later on, as I do not have
it on the computer I am now.
