Hi Barry,
here is what we ended up doing. We are submitting to an AGU journal,
which requires CMYK eps or TIFFs. I read in the postscript figure in
question
(produced by IDL) into Paintshop pro (an inexpensive Windows program
by Jasc Software). I used that program to create a CMYK TIFF files
(compressed)
and submitted that.

You can download the paintshop pro program and take it for a 30 day (?)
trial. I find it comes in handy for image editing.

Cheers,
bob
