In fact, I have seen were people clip a line by changing the number of pixel per line but not the bytes-per-line. What has been your experience? Suggestion: Leave the equation out of specification and it is understood or is stated that new raster lines begin at multiples of bpl.<o:p></o:p></span></font></div><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in;
