Forgive if this problem has been recently discussed; I am new to TeX and
to this newsgroup.

I have a TeX file representing a paper that contains graphs. The graphs
are in the form of postscript files. The graphs are called by the 
following command:

               \special {psfile=graph.ps}

TeX processes the .tex file ok. Then I run dvi2ps, which runs ok. But
when I try to print, the page with the graph, and all following pages
in the document do not print at all.

I suspect the syntax for \special is wrong, but what should it be?
The man page for dvi2ps doesn't help.

Thanks in advance,

.Paul.
