Hey guys!  I've got a real dumb question to ask.

The object:

	To convert an X11 bitmap image (solid black logo) into
	postscript, then use "setgray" (I think) to make the image lighter,
	and put some text over it.

The method:

	I've used the PBMPLUS package to convert the bitmap
	into postscript without a problem.  Then I thought I'd just add
	a ".5 setgray".

The problem:

	No matter what I do, the image is always solid black.


I am not a postscript programmer, but I need to get this done for
a semi-important project.

Thanks for any help,
Robert (415) 545-8313
