I guess there have been posted *lots of* articles about
inserting Mac ps files in TeX (LaTeX) long time ago.
At that time, I didn't pay attention. SORRY.

I have two questions about it, again.

[1] BoundingBox vs. PageBoundingBox ?

However, a ps file in my Mac has the following

%%BoundingBox: ? ? ? ?
%%PageBoundingBox: 30 31 528 761

Then, how do I fix it? Do I replace ? ? ? ? with 30 31 528 761?
Or anything else?

[2] Where is bbfig?

Where can I find bbfig?
