Summary: I am on bitnet and will send; picture too complex for imagen

I can FTP the files down to UMD2 and send them via BitNet.  It is quite
possible that truncation to 80 column format when the message was passed
to BitNet is the culprit.  Mail on BitNet is a virtual punch file, and we
all know virtual cards can't have more than 80 columns, right?

I got the small fish to work OK, but when I try to print the big one the
Imagen (8x300) says "print error" and seems to lose itself in the complexity
at the top and bottom of the page.  Anyone else seen this happen?  Is there
some easy fix?
