I have never downloaded from GR (I only ever upload) and have never run PAF (I use Family Historian). So to be able to help you further I have just done exactly that!
OK, you have your Gedcom in Pictures, and you have PAF installed.
Open PAF and you should get a box open up in the middle with 'Welcome to Personal Ancestral File' and 5 option buttons.
Click on 'Open' and a file navigation window will open.
About 2/3 of the way down that box there is 'Files of type:' with a drop down box.
Select 'GEDCOM (*.ged)'
Then in the file list navigate to your pictures folder and select the Gedcom
Click 'Open' and you will get a prompt asking you to create a new PAF file. You can give this the same name as your Gedcom (without the .ged)
You will then be asked about some preferences, set them now or just click OK and do it later.
Then comes an import progress screen, when that's finished, you're done!
