Hi Guy - to handle bitmaps with SVG your app needs to be linked with
libpng, and you need to compile gl2ps.c with "GL2PS_HAVE_LIBPNG" defined
(this gets defined automatically in certain cases: look at gl2ps.h).

GL2PS then automatically embeds little base64-encoded PNG versions of
your bitmaps in the SVG file.

Cheers,
Christophe
