On my VL200, the intermediate file looks a lot like Windows EMF format with an extra header that contains the power and speed in for the eight control colors. I suspect the driver that pushes it out the USB converts that to something simpler for the onboard processor on the fly.
Note also that (AFAIK) there is no provision in the G-code spec for anything remotely resembling raster data.
