Do:
        epstopdf fig1.ps
        change fig1.ps to fig1.pdf in the document
	use pdflatex
that should work.

For the details, see Robin's answer.

And that is a question for comp.text.tex, and NOT this list.

Best wishes

FRANT (n.)
Measure. The legal minimum distance between two trains on the District
and Circle line of the London Underground. A frant, which must be not
less than 122 chains (or 8 leagues) long, is not connected in any way
with the adjective 'frantic' which comes to us by a completely
different route (as indeed do the trains).
