Hi,

  I'm having trouble including EPS files into my postscript file.
Everything seems to work fine, except for EPS files with the
'colorimage' command.  I've messed around a whole lot, and no luck!  I
think my problems have more to do with the colorimage command than
anything else.

  Here is a code sample:

=================
gsave
/SaveState save def
/showpage {} def

%%BeginDocument: crud2.eps
%!PS-Adobe-3.0 EPSF-3.0
%%Creator: GIMP PostScript file plugin V 1.05 by Peter Kirchgessner
%%Title: /home/memmett/crud2.eps
%%CreationDate: Tue Nov 16 11:16:17 1999
%%DocumentData: Clean7Bit
%%LanguageLevel: 2
%%Pages: 1
%%BoundingBox: 14 14 87 87
%%EndComments
%%BeginProlog
% Use own dictionary to avoid conflicts
5 dict begin
%%EndProlog
%%Page: 1 1
% Translate for offset
14.400000 14.400000 translate

% Variable to keep one line of raster data

{ currentfile scanline readhexstring pop } false 3

%%Trailer
end
%%EOF
%%EndDocument

/SaveState restore
grestore

/Helvetica findfont 12 scalefont setfont
0 200 moveto
(I never see this text) show
showpage
======================

I find that nothing past the %%EndDocument is executed! (gs v5.10).
Even if I make a horrible typo (ie, put asdfklj;sfad after the last
show) no errors are raised!

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Matt

Your buffer size is the problem. It must be exactly one scan line, but
it is eight scan lines (confusing bits and bytes).

Change the 24 -> 3 and the image will stop where expected, rather than
consuming the whole file.
