This last solution never worked for me even if it works for other people (I
don't know why). So, if you are in my case, try the sequence
latex <yourtexfile>.tex
dvips -o <yourtexfile>.ps -Ppdf -G0 -t a4 <yourtexfile>.dvi
ps2pdf <yourtexfile>.ps
where <yourtexfile> is obviously the name without extension of your original
tex file.
Personnally, I used to summarize this sequence in a Makefile (given in
attachment) that I put in the same dir than my file. Next, after having
replaced <yourtexfile> by the correct name in the Makefile, I type
make pdf
on the command line to generate my pdf file and open acroread.
Bye,
Laurent.
