[Bf-docboard] less graphics

[Alex Heizer]

It does look like GiMP decomposes it into 4 separate images, one color 
each. It also took my mostly-green test image and gave me 3 black images 
and all the colors assigned to the yellow channel.  Hmm...  Looks like 
it's designed for some rudimentary colorsep processing, but still not 
ready for print, unless I need to adjust some settings...

It also doesn't save in EPS format. At least my version of the Linux 
port, which is pretty recent.
