Abstract
The use of raster graphics devices needs adapting to graphics applications. The first graphics standard, the Graphics Kernel System GKS, defines a logical interface on an application and device independent level. The workstation driver maps the logical GKS functions to device functions. First some special raster device facilities are outlined and then it is shown how to use them within the driver. To reduce the amount of driver implementations a common driver concept is sought here, especially for raster devices.
