  • Palettes

    From Paul Thompson@21:1/5 to All on Mon Apr 16 10:40:15 2018
    I neited to reduce a picture to 16 palettes so that it will fit in a PCX header. Suggestions? Thanks, Paul

    I use Irfanview to reduce colors ( image --> decrease color depth ).

    You can change the image from RGB color to indexed color by selecting Image->Mode->Indexed...

    Play with the different options for the color palette and the dithering algorithm to get the result you like most.
