I'm creating bit images using a C program whose output is postscript.
It seems that when I have too many pixels in a scan line, my image
is not displayed properly. (Sometimes it isn't even displayed at all.)
From trial and error it seems that the number of pixels that work
depends on the number of bits per pixel.  I've found, for example,
that I can display 720 pixels at 1 bit per pixel, 504 at 2 bpp, 362
at 4 bpp and 255 at 8 bpp.

Is this a limitation of postscript or a bug of mine?  Assuming the former,
is there a parameter that can be changed to enable more pixels? I've
looked through the books but I didn't see anything.

I'd really appreciate a reply by email as this is not one of the
groups that I usually read.

The best address for me is not what's in the header but is:
grinberg@bimacs.bitnet   or   grinberg@bimacs.biu.ac.il

                Thanks,
                       Dennis
