Dear Jin,
I compared what you use against what I use and it is the same. My next
suggestion is that you try your compilation command line first and see
if nothing is wrong with either dvips or ps2pdf. If that works you can
try to generate a ps file by setting the target to ps. Since you were
already able to create your dvi file, at least that should work. If not
we should concentrate on getting your dvi->ps part to work first.
cheers,
Dennis
