Howdy,

I assume that the figures are supposed to be on the page that turns up
completely empty. I didn't go much past there so there may be more blank
pages. The conversion done by TeXShop may also have the problem but the
scrolling of the pdf file was so slow that I didn't bother. The slow
scrolling seems to be related to having bitmapped fonts! How did you create
the .ps file?

Good Luck,
