Do you really need full page bitmap graphics? I calculated pixel size of 
your image and I got cca 144Mpix. Thus raw size of your image will be 
probably about a few GB - depending on bit depth.

Which format do ÿou use and which is filesize of image? Do you have no 
troubles when working with image in bitmap editor (Gimp, Photosphop...)?

Best regards
O.
