I have a similar problem.
I am interested in getting MAC postscript files (from macdraw or
macpaint) included into LaTeX documents using the \special
command, and the dvi2ps program on a SUN.
So far I have been able to successfully include a non-mac
postscript file into a LaTeX file (using dvi2ps), and I have been
able to print out a mac postscript file (non-LaTeX) on a LaserWriter
(you need to prepend a header containing a mac postscript
dictionary - on our machine its called  laser-prep-30.pro). However,
I have not been able to include a mac postscript file into a
LaTeX file no matter how I try to include the laser-prep stuff. 
Has anybody been succesful in getting mac files to be included
(and printed) in LaTeX documents? If so, I want to hear about it.
