I want to handle preferences printer output from a vector drawing
program. I need to support _real_ printers, so 300dpi is expected.
Therefore (I think) I need to send the picture in strips, using
a shorter rasport (right?).
Rather than handle all the extra clipping this involves myself, is
it possible to use the layers library to protect memory outside the
rastport strip being rendered to from being written into by the 
drawing routines?
