AFAIK, both jadetex and pdfjadetex are built from the same .dtx, which
uses the native LaTeX graphicx package.  As such, EPS should work for
both situations.

Looking briefly at jadetex.dtx, we also see the following intriguing
comment, but I don't know whether it is relevant to what you are
trying to do:

% How we include graphics depends on the NotationSystemId. 
% Ulrich Drepper <drepper@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> worked this
% out, and he also made the alignment and indentation work correctly.
%If any other notation needs special
% handling it can be implemented by adding a macro
%       |insertExternalGraphicNotationXXX|
% where XXX is the notation name.
%    \begin{macrocode}
