Nope, not necessary.

Be stumped no more.

Thomas sent me a jpg file conversion (from the 34" x 45" PDF I emailed him
about an hour ago) straight out of OSX Preview.

I imported the 2448 x 3240 JPEG image to a Rev stack, grouped it, bordered
it, set the margins to 0, locked it, added scrollbars, and plugged the
*genuine* Rev-style mouseMove grab/scroll handlers into the image script.

It works beautifully. Grab/scrolls like its on bed of ball bearings. No
problems, no joke.

Now all I need to do is decide on the right size for the group, design and
build my metamap remote scroller, and I'll be done.

Rev is Kewel ;-)
