Ok, I've prepared a full example:

pdf.tex:

\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage[dvips]{graphics}

\begin{document}

before
\includegraphics{knn-f1.ps}
after

\end{document}

pdf.pdf produced by:

texi2pdf -p pdf.tex

The pdf.log file:

 File: knn-f1.ps Graphic file (type eps)
  <knn-f1.ps>
 Overfull \hbox (19.90765pt too wide) in paragraph at lines 6--9
[verse]
\OT1/cmr/m/n/12 before []

Here is how much of TeX's memory you used:

pdflatex gives the same result: empty graph.

Searching in the archive with right words bring me to the right place. According to Sebastian:

> The line to include graph: (works for dvi & ps)
> \includegraphics[width=5in]{HOPE.02.top.eps}

You need to convert the eps file to a pdf file using

epstopdf HOPE.02.top.eps

Then get the bounding box with

ebb HOPE.02.top.pdf

Finally, include the pdf file in your tex file

\includegraphics[width=5in]{HOPE.02.top.pdf}
