EXAMPLES

       Create a black and white QPDL stream:

              gs -q -dBATCH -dSAFER -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE
                  -sPAPERSIZE=letter -r1200x600 -sDEVICE=pbmraw
                  -sOutputFile=- - < testpage.ps
              | foo2qpdl -r1200x600 -g10200x6600 -p0 >testpage.zm

       Create a color QPDL stream:

              gs -q -dBATCH -dSAFER -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE
                  -sPAPERSIZE=letter -g10200x6600 -r1200x600 -sDEVICE=bitcmyk
                  -sOutputFile=- - < testpage.ps
              | foo2qpdl -r1200x600 -g10200x6600 -p0 >testpage.zc
