Forgot to include the comparison to using jpeg2ps

prompt> jpeg2ps /usr/local/packages/rsi/idl_6.2_i586/examples/data/rose.jpg > rose.eps
Note on file '/usr/local/packages/rsi/idl_6.2_i586/examples/data/rose.jpg ': 227x149 pixel, 3 color
components

prompt> ls -l rose.eps
-rw-r--r-- 1 user group 8272 Apr 26 14:18 rose.eps

Only 8272 bytes.
