What I would like -- if it can be done -- is to end up with a greyscale version of this location map that I can then bring into a figure float in my book.
I just answered my own question. For the archives, this is what I did:
1) pdf2ps -- produces the .ps file.
for a single page pdf you can use pdfcrop, which cuts all whitespace around the image. Important is, that there is no pagenumber, otherwise pdfcrop cannot work. It is a perl script.
Then you can do a pdftops, eostoeps and you get a minimized eps file. The easiest way is to use pdflatex with the cropped pdf.
