Thomas,
You should be able to use one of several options:
open plotfile.ps # should open in Preview.app, allowing convert/save to
pdf
/usr/bin/pstopdf
ps2pdf # if you’ve installed ghostscript or other toolchains
Don’t forget, you may need to add:
9 grap plotfile | 9 pic | 9troff -mm | 9 tr2post | 9 psfonts >
plotfile.ps
-jas
