I'd highly recommend going the pdftex route instead http://www.tug.org/applications/pdftex/)
.  Pdftex generates much more compatible PDF files that the dvips
route--aka, dvips output prints to paper fine, looks horrid on most
PDF viewers.

Now if I could only get more time in the day--as the time change to
save the US money myth has been debunked by statistics from Indiana.
