You didn't mention if you were running the Pascal workstation or HPUX.
The Pascal workstation sets no limits as to were you can write.  However,
you must be sure to write on an even boundary when writing to the graphics
memory.  I recommend that you use the move.w instruction to write to the
graphics memory on an even address.  

In HPUX, there is an excellent discussion in the latest HPUX manual under
GRAPHICS(4).  The part-number is 09000-90008.  It is a little too involved
for me to describe it here.  This manual was distributed with HPUX 5.01 and
later.
