+ "The PSTricks macros cannot be used (directly) with pdfTeX, since
+PSTricks uses PostScript arithmetic, which isn't part of PDF. This package
+circumvents this limitation so that the extensive facilities offered by the
+powerful PSTricks package can be made use of in a pdfTeX document. This is
+done using the shell escape function available in current TeX implementations.
+The package may also be used in support of other PostScript-output-only
+packages, such as PSfrag.")
