Open your PostScript file with "psfragcompatible"
The function searches the PostScript file for strings of the form <01020304>Tj or [<010203>-1<0405>-1<06>-1<07>1<08>129<090a06>]TJ and replaces them by strings of the form (int)Tj, where int is a number 1,2,3, ...
Finally you can use \psfrag{int}{your latex expression} in LaTeX.

This function is a modification of the function "replaceinfile" written by Pekka Kumpulainen.

The workaround is explained on http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/File-Export.html
