OK. I will leave it as it was for this release.

The intent was that glpixels, glpixelsx, and glqpixels NOT work in a

give domain error in the next beta.
The main problem is that pixels on printers are not necessarilly
rectangular and this means the pixel map will look small and
stretched
compared to how it would look on hte screen. That is why everything
else
works in twips for a printer context. For the pixel family to be
usefull
on the printer extra work would be needed to stretch and scale and
that
is beyond the scope of this release.
Please, please do not change it until you work out a better solution.
I need it
and it works fine in both J504 and J601. I resize image data before
feeding it
to glpixels. If glpixels does not work then there is no way to print
images (for
letter head and logo) to printer and that means I can not use J601
anymore.
