We're pretty fond of making big windows, capturing them
to JPEGs, then using jpeg2ps to convert them to EPS files.
Level 2 postscript actually supports JPEG, so the EPS files
are only about 10k larger than the original JPEG, with just
a bit of wrapper around them. The result can be included
in TeX or PDF documents.

Here's a link to jpeg2ps:

Hope this helps.
