I would try: 1. Make a copy of the original image and work only on the copy. 2. Make the image grayscale and threshold it (perhaps using gimp). 3. Save it as a pgm file. 4. Convert it to a vector graphics format, perhaps eps, using potrace. 5. Enlarge that image to the proper size and print it. The image is a vector graphic so should print fine. ->HS -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
