It all depends on whether your DVI -> PostScript translator supports
the \special hook to include postscript files. Some of them do, but
the syntax is different in all the ones I've seen (and some are more
powerful than others). For instance, the one I'm using right now (called
dvips) uses:

		\special{psfile="filename"[,key=value]*}

     possible keys are:

     hoffset			   The horizontal offset
     voffset			   The vertical	offset
     hsize			   The horizontal clipping size
     vsize			   The vertical	clipping size
     hscale			   The horizontal scaling factor
     vscale			   The vertical	scaling	factor
     rotate			   The rotation
