David obviously knows more but:

I assume OPro stores the pic in its original format and simply uses
OS routines to 'plot_scaled' as appropriate for vdu display and
printing. It will be the original image in the DDL file.

Looking at the source, meDDLe extracts the image from the file and
uses it as is. The question is - presumably the DDL file contains all
the image process parameters, including scale - is it possible to
modify meDDLe to honour the scale factor.

meDDLe appears to scan the DDL file for the pics, stores the file ptr
of the start of each picture, together with other info such as pic
type. It then comes back and processes the pictures - eg convert
sprite to png, or draw to png. Will these utilities scale at the same
time?

I have just had a quick skim of the source code. To actually do
anything would take a lot longer.
