I use and enjoy ProDraw 2.0- its slick, especially on an accelerated
Amiga. 

My problem is outputting Postscript to PS printers- sometimes the
output is too complex for the printer and it barfs. The Pro Draw
manual warns about this- its the printer's fault.

Does anyone know a way of easily splitting a region so it works? The
thing that kills the PS output is a region (filled or not) with over
about 800 segments in it. This is quite common when you use auto-trace.

My application is really cool- I'm digitizing comics from the newspaper
and blowing them up really big- it looks GREAT! [These are for my wall, not
distribution, so no copyright flames!] 

Thanks!
