ps.map will work quite well for this, as long as you increase the "limit" 
variable in map_setup.c to reflect the maximum number of pixels that you care
to allow. The limit "out of the box" is only 1,000,000 pixels for color, 
3,000,000 for gray-scale (I never quite figured out the reason for that!). We 
changed ours to 100,000,000 pixels - big enough to allow really ridiculus
PostScript files!
