Ordinarily an EPS file is included as a kind of black box into another 
document. On the application display you might get a little preview of 
what it looks like, or you might get some icon. When the document is 
printed to PostScript (and you can't easily include any EPS when 
printing to anything else) the EPS file is inserted verbatim at that 
point.

So yes, that's the normal way to do it. In your case however you could 
just use the "(filename) run" method.
