In general you want to add an EPS header to your PostScript file.
The only tricky part is figuring out the bounding box dimensions.
When in doubt, I just use 8-1/2x11 or 612 792 in points.

The generic EPS header is:
%!-Adobe-2.0 EPSF-1.2
%%Title:
%%Creator:
%%CreationDate:
%%BoundingBox: 0 0 612 792
%%YourCommentsGoHere
%%EndComments

Dig?  Adobe makes a tech note on the matter available.

Good luck!
