[bug-pcl] pcl6 looping when writing pdf

[Stefan Kemper]

Hi Andreas,

How long did you let the process run?  The test file uses scanline
raster with old raster commands that we send down as individual images
these create great pain for the high level devices like pswrite and
pdfwrite that try to retain these as individual images, the low level
device just paint them at device resolution.

Best regards,
Stefan
