I use the following in my documents, and run "pdflatex" which converts .eps 
files to .pdf files "on the fly" and includes it in the generated PDF file. 
(It generates the pdf file in the first run, then includes them in the second 
run. So, run pdflatex twice for the first time).

\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{epstopdf}
\usepackage{pdfsync}
\DeclareGraphicsExtensions{.pdf,.png}

These commands work both in windows as well as Linux platforms.
Also remember to enable "Shell escape" in your document editor.

Wishes
Thomas
