Hello

  My english language is very poor and perhaps i don't understand  
very well

ps4pdf is obsolete; use pst-pdf instead ????


I use pst-pdf everyday with pdflatex but with the first compilation i  
need to use ps4pdf :

the four last lines of a old ps4pdf are :

myexec latex "$file"
myexec dvips -Ppdf -o "$job-pics.ps" "$job.dvi"
myexec ps2pdf -dAutoRotatePages=/None "$job-pics.ps" "$job-pics.pdf"
myexec pdflatex "$file"

To use pst-pdf it is necessary to use a script to compile:
     Ps4pdf or another thing; Pst-pdf does not replace Ps4pdf
it's independant.

In my last ps4pdf i have :

myexec latex "$file"
test -f "$job.dvi" && myexec dvips -Ppdf -o "$job-pics.ps" "$job.dvi"
test -f "$job-pics.ps" && myexec ps2pdf \
   -dAutoRotatePages=/None "$job-pics.ps" "$job-pics.pdf"
if $crop; then
   myexec pdfcrop "$job-pics.pdf" "$job-pics-crop.pdf"
   mv "$job-pics-crop.pdf" "$job-pics.pdf"
fi
myexec pdflatex "$file"


pdfcrop is used ! and it's like your workflow !!
