Running ps2pdf from within Mathematica

Under OS X 10.4 running the following at the commandline ...

   /sw/bin/ps2pdf foo.ps

... summons the ps2pdf utility and converts foo.ps to foo.pdf, which is
good. However, evaluating ...

   Run["/sw/bin/ps2pdf foo.ps"]

... from within Mathematica gives the return code 32512 and doesn't
summon psp2df.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Trevor.
