Another option for you --  at least as a temporary workaround until you
get gs (or whatever) going -- is the ebitmap() function in the epstk
package.  No PDF, but it does generate five major graphical formats with
selectable resolution, and gives pretty darn good rendering.  I know zippo
about the mac world, but I presume there must be many choices available
for conversion to PDF from one or more of these formats.
