For the vector purists (e.g. me) making SVG or
Postscript or PDF or some
True vector format, would be a desirable goal. But with endpoint resolution
Only 1024x768 probably overkill. I still hate seeing what I know are
True vector lines, get rasterized.
Actually, IIRC, the 4631 is raster, not a vector device, It scans an
electro beam across the storage target in the (vecotr display) CRT and
reads out what's stored. And IIRC it does it a scan line at a time and
prints the image using a strange, flat, 1-axis CRT onto photosensitive
paper with the other axis being achieved by the paper movement.
