Indexed PNG?

[Dylan Parry]

Hi,

I've been searching for the answer to this for a while, but I've had no
luck! Does anyone know how to convert an RGB PNG to Indexed on the fly?

TIA

I believe you may have to get down and dirty with the bits (unless there are
some utilities out there for this purpose). See:

That was what I was afraid of! I suppose that there may be some
component out there that does what I want, but I was hoping there would
be a native way of doing it. Time to find the old credit card, maybe...
