Hi Matt,
	my experience with latex:

\usepackage{psfrag}

[...]

\begin{figure}[htb]
\centering
\psfrag{CH4}{CH$_4$}
\includegraphics[height=0.925\textwidth,angle=270]{./imgs/ch4_K_200310.ps}
\label{fig:ch4K}
\end{figure}


this converts "CH4" in the title of the plot in "CH" with "4" as subscript.

regards
Claudio
