Large images in X11: what program, settings ?




Hello,

  I am trying to manipulate a largish (1 page) schematic in X11 and I am
having troubles. I want to print the (PS) file into a graphical file
(pbmraw will do). I use gs for this. 2 problems:

1. gs draws the output with horrible resolution (very low) even if I use
-r and MAGSTEP settings.

2. xv and other graphics manipulators take a very long time to load a
~600k compressed pbmraw file.

3. Ghostview has no troubles displaying the image perfectly on X11.

  I have 233MHz 64MB ram and lots of swap. Any ideas ?

thx,
	Peter

PS: Is this a sign to upgrade ? <g>
