How do I compile ijs for Solaris Sparc (8 and 9)?
If building a shared object, you should use -fPIC to produce position independent code.
If you downloadftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/i/ijs/ijs_0.34-1.diff.gz and apply this to the unpacked ijs 0.34 tarball
gunzip -cd ijs_0.34-1.diff.gz | patch -p1
then libtool will be used to compile and link the library. This should know the correct compiler and linker flags.
How do I specify per page characteristics?
The IjsPageHeader contains the width and height of the page. The page size can change from page to page when set by setpagedevice. I think resolution is also allowed to change. Some other items like bps (bits per sample) and n_chan (number of channels) are not allowed to change (at least not in Ghostscript which prevents BitsPerPixel from changing after the device is open).
Actually, this isn't true; the CUPS driver for Ghostscript can change BitsPerPixel (actually for the CUPS driver it's cupsBitsPerColor that changes) on-the-fly; it is only gdevprn.c that doesn't check for a change in image depth.
