In the preamble:

\newcommand\BackgroundPicture[3]{%
  \setlength{\unitlength}{1pt}%
  \put(0,\strip@pt\paperheight){%
  \parbox[t]{\paperwidth}{%
    \vspace*{#2}\hspace*{#3}%
    \includegraphics{#1}
}}}

In the text
\AddToShipoutPicture*{\BackgroundPicture{foo.eps}{1in}{2in}} will put the
picture 1 inch from the top, and 2 inch from the left edge of the paper.
