On a related topic, does anyone have a tiff or EPS file that contains
every color that is both 12-bit pure and maps to a pure 2 bit gray-
scale value?  This would make a useful color panel palette.

I posted a couple of EPS files here a while ago that generate every 12
bit pure color, so these could be used for ideas if no one has
undertaken this pursuit.

please post or email if you have such a beast.
