Can anyone answer some general questions on film recorders as
graphical output devices?

1. Do they use CRT technology?

2. Does the resulting film show individual pixels, or do the pixels
   scatter when being recorded such that the film looks continuous?

3. How good is the color fidelity?  (I'm not sure of the best measure
   to use for this.  Perhaps consitency of reproduction is a good
   measure since any static color error could presumably be 
   compensated for.)

Thanx
