I always forget about pstill, and you're right -- it does work. I was  
hoping for a command line utility, though.

And I'm curious why convert and epstopdf don't do the right thing. As  
it happens, I tried ps2pdf again and it seems
to work (I had a lot of samples to look through this afternoon),  
though it places the graphic on a letter-size page.

Thank you.
