<br>
I agree with Mike here in objecting to registering these fields.<br>
<br>
PWG standards are supposed to only contain fields/attributes<br>
that *could* be tested in an interoperability event. It's not<br>
plausible that a typical streaming client would know the size <br>
when it's very large (when the feature's useful), so such a<br>
feature's not interoperable or verifiable.<br>

matter of "may not provide", in most cases clients (and printers)
simply can't buffer hundreds of megabytes of raster data I can add the field,
but since most producers of PWG Raster will not be able to supply the
compressed size of the raster no printer will be able to depend on it anyways,
so IMHO it is best to have the printer, if it is going to do any local
processing of full page images, use its own optimal internal storage format
than try to gerry-rig something into the format that just won't work.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

the printer, it will accept the streaming input just fine. I want the
size information for navigation of a many page raster without having to
decompress pages in a serial manor. I am not jerry-rigging
anything. I do not understand your comment “that just won’t
work”. It works fine. In fact, I wrote a routine that will
find the size-only of compressed page by running the compression routine
without storing the compressed data. I don’t understand your
objection to assigning the field.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

prefer to flag the file as version 3 which is an uncompressed CUPS Raster with

want to use native word order (another feature of CUPS Raster that we are not
bringing along for PWG Raster...)<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

that if you are concerned about having a standard representation for
intermediate data, CUPS Raster already provides that. If you are trying to
tweak PWG Raster for use as an internal representation format then I'd rather
not put that in the standard since internal formats are OOS for any PWG
standard.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
