When I try to compile this file http://danjer.doudouke.org/_media/tech/dokutexit/playground.zip this error occurs:
! LaTeX Error: Unknown graphics extension: .ps.
I'm using TeXworks Version 0.4.3 (MiKTeX 2.9) and pdfLaTeX.

You could compile with pdfLaTeX, if you add the line
\usepackage{auto-pst-pdf}for automatic conversion of the PS images to PDF. It requires the option --enable-write18 set. Check the TeXworks preferences, Typesetting, Processing tools, pdfLaTeX:
You can compile it with XeLaTeX, which is directly supported by TeXworks. You can choose XeLaTeX in the drop-down menu.
For compiling with XeLaTeX, remove these two lines from the preamble, as XeLaTeX natively supports UTF-8:
\usepackage{ucs} \usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc}Use LaTeX in DVI-mode, and convert as needed, using dvips and ps2pdf, or dvipdfm(x). You can call
latexat the command prompt, or define a new tool for TeXworks in the preferences:

Seems to work! But there are now different errors. I will figure this out... – powtac Jan 20 '12 at 17:17

@powtac I was able to successfully compile that project both with pdfLaTeX and XeLaTeX, as described. If you encounter different problems or have follow-up questions, perhaps post a new question, with a link to this question. – Stefan Kottwitz♦ Jan 20 '12 at 17:26

pdflatex can insert graphics in jpeg, pdf, and png formats. Can you convert your postscript image (assuming postscript since it has the .ps extension)?

you can use plain latex which can insert the postscript image, or stay with pdflatex but convert your image to png, pdf, or jpeg. – Tim A Jan 20 '12 at 17:13
