Hi,
 As I have said in previous notes that got no response, I am having
trouble getting a xwd image onto my HPLaserJet.

hpxpr fails with a message about not being able to get the window name.
When I print out the window_name_size, it is something like 18 billion.
The program seems to get this stat from the xwd header file, and obviously
it gets it wrong.  I would like some response about changes in the
specifications of xwd files and the xwd header file. (Please)

piping the xwd output through the pbm convertors gives a garbled image on
the printer.  I had a kind fellow respond to this who suggested that the
problem was with the getimage routine in the DEC server (??)  If I could
get hpxpr to work, the pbm problem would be unimportant for me.

                                      Any and all comments are appreciated,
                                                Rob.
