% PostScript program to demonstrate how to put down a raster image in the
% device coordinate system, so as to guarantee that each bit of the raster
% image maps exactly into one bit of the laser marking engine. It works
% by cramming identity matrixes into all of the relevant transformations.
/zstr 300 8 div 1 add cvi string def % define a 300-bit string buffer
/Imtx matrix def % make an identity matrix
175 350 translate 0 0 moveto % go to a random place on the page
/Courier findfont 15 scalefont setfont % put down a label
(A 300-by-300 raster image: ) show
currentpoint transform % see where we are in device coords
Imtx setmatrix % turn off all transformation
% (i.e. switch to device coordinate
% system)
translate % move origin to transformed currpt
/imageproc { zstr } def % define a null imageproc
% (it just puts 300 bits of zero on
% the stack when it is called)
300 300 % print a 1-inch square
false % make 0 bits be black
Imtx % don't transform anything
imageproc % our null imaging proc
imagemask % generate the image
