Good DVI to PDF Conversion

Old school Latex user and want to produce clean PDF files without pdflatex? The following steps tend to work pretty well after you've generated a dvi using latex:
  • dvips -P cmz -t letter -o file.ps file.dvi
  • ps2pdf file.ps file.pdf
If the '-P cmz' option to dvips does not work, some folks have luck with '-P pdf'.
