On a related note, is there any way to convert PS instructions that
produce a relatively small image into the actual bitmap of the image?  
I've got a file that makes the printer execute all kinds of funky 
arctangents and curvetos to produce the exact same image over and over
again -- I'd like to get the image in a bitmap without scanning it
(and without whipping out the graph paper to do a manual rendering :-) )
to optimize execution time/throughput.  Any suggestions?

Andy
