Hi David,

I don`t have the sane-specs in mind at that point, but I don`t understand
why a 16-bit gamma upload to the scanner is byte-order independent and
a 16-bit download from the backend to the frontend is must take care of the
byte-order/transform it.

Byt the way, I don`t think that it is good for efficency that that byte-order must be
swapped twice sometimes:
scanner-byte-order to backend-byte-order to frontend-byte-order.

Bye
Oliver
