But seriously the AMUC_Demo (Fish Disk 117) is a 2400x200 (32 colour) picture that was done in Express Paint. Current versions are limited by CHIP ram, which gives an upper limit of about 1500x2000 pixels for black and white work. One USER complained about not being able to print a 2400 by 2900 pixel drawing on his LaserJet (he had an early 1Meg Agnus) ... seems the 1.2 printer drivers did not like pictures that big :-) We did get it to print by writing a new driver using PrtDrvGen. As I said "current versions are limited...", my version prints a 2400x3204 page in about 12 seconds. Stephen Vermeulen Author: Express Paint
