Bug 690416

Summary:	color handling for rastergraphics inverted (on B&W device)
Product:	GhostPCL	Reporter:	norbert.janssen
Component:	PCL interpreter	Assignee:	Henry Stiles <henry.stiles>
Status:	NOTIFIED DUPLICATE
Severity:	normal

Description norbert.janssen 2009-04-14 04:07:07 UTC

When printing attached 'invertedlogo.pcl' on an HP LJ4100 it prints a logo
(white box, with the black text 'MetLife').
However, the trunk GhostPDL (latest version) prints the logo inverted (i.e.
black box, with white text 'MetLife').

This is probably because color commands are handled differently on a black&white
device. I.e. it is correctly printed on a x11, and inverted on an x11mono.
Also bitdevice (our targetdevice) is inverted.

obj/pcl6 -sDEVICE=bit -r72 -sOutputFile=page.bit invertedlogo.pcl
prepend a 'P4 header' and view result as a pbm.

Created attachment 4928 [details]
invertedlogo.pcl

testfile for printing a logo (rastergraphics).
Should be printing a black text: MetLife
obj/pcl6 -sDEVICE=x11 invertedlogo.pcl
or
obj/pcl6 -sDEVICE=bit -r72 -sOutputFile=tmp invertedlogo.pcl
and prepend a 'P4' header.
