I don't know if this is any help to you, and I realise that it only
answers part of your query, but I often use something like so...

%% put a white box around the file.
\newcommand{\boxedincludegraphics}[2][]
{\psframebox[fillcolor=white,linecolor=white,fillstyle=solid]{
    \includegraphics[#1]{#2}
  }}


which just sticks a white box around what ever graphs I am
inserting. I've found this helps with Gnuplot graphs for instance,
which appear to be transparent, so you get black on blue (or whatever
your background colour is). 

Cheers

Phil
