Thanks, Richard.
I was also able to get it to work using "export image". Your suggestion
of using the selectedobject allowed me to make this work with Ken's
script as well. Thank you!
I found that the largest width I could set the stack and create an
export image was about 4000 pixels. Anything greater caused the image
to display garbage. I searched the archives but couldn't find a
definitive answer: is there a maximum size image beyond which Rev
cannot handle?
