I was trying (with no success) for the last 3 months to include mac
generated Postscript files in a latex document. The procedure which I
followed was the following:

1. I generated the mac PS file using clobber-F.
2. I downloaded the PS file to my SUN workstation.
3. I latex the TeX file with the psfig package using the psfig guidelines
(I have psfig version 1.1, Tex version 2.98 and the LaserPrep file was
generated with macps). The LaTeX critical commands where:

%at the beginning of the document
\documentstyle[psfig]{article} 

%somewhere in the document
\begin{figure*}
\centerline{\psfig{figure=pict.ps,prolog=LaserPrep}}
\end{figure*}

4. Then, I converted the dvi file to PS file using dvips version 4.2.
5. Finally, I lpr'ed the result to an apple laser printer and 
instead of the PS figure I got white space...

Am I missing something here? Is there any other way to do that?

Thanks in advance,
