Hi there,

does anybody know a postscript program, which facilitates the 
downloading of raster images into a postscript printer with
some compressed data format ?

Unfortunately, there is a lot of software, which generates only
raster plots, for e.g. V80s ...

On a postscript printer connected over a rs232, it may take about
20 min to get a single output page from pure raster data.

Is there anybody on the net, who can give me a hint how to speed up
raster plots ?

Thanks in advance,


Detlef Clawin
