The problem is, the whole plot/ps/eps/dvi/ghostscript/pdf/xpdf/distiller
process is totally obscure to a normal user. For example, i don't have
xpdf installed... but choosing the xpdf setting gives me perfect results
now. If I understand you correctly, I just need the "pdftops" utility
included in "poppler-utils".

Well, thanks again!
