Morphos port by Diego Casorran.
Note from uploader: pngrewrite is best used to preprocess pngs (8 bits depth or below)
before processing them with further optimizers like PngCrush or OptiPng (both available
on Morphos). Many thanks to Diego Casorran for doing this port and allowing me to
spread it. Visit his homepage at http://amiga.sourceforge.net for more of his portings
and feel free to donate on his PayPal account to keep him doing this great service to
the Amiga and clones community.
pngrewrite
version 1.2.1 - 8 Feb 2003
A quick and dirty utility to reduce unnecessarily large palettes
and bit depths in PNG image files.
** To compile in a unix-like environment, type something like:
** cc -o pngrewrite pngrewrite.c -lpng -lz -lm

This program and source code may be used without restriction.

- Write grayscale images when possible
- Ability to sort palette by color usage
- Improved find_pal_entry performance

- Changes to allow use in a unix-style pipeline
- Improved compatibility with MinGW and Cygwin
- Maintain tIME chunks
Pngrewrite will:
* Remove any unused palette entries, and write a palette that is only as large as needed.
* Remove (collapse) any duplicate palette entries.
* Convert non-palette image to palette images, provided they contain no
more than 256 different colors.
* Write images as grayscale when possible.
* Move any colors with transparency to the beginning of the palette, and write a tRNS chunk that is a small as possible.
* Reduce the bit-depth (bits per pixel) as much as possible. All of this is just basic stuff that any respectable image
writing program should always do automatically, but for some reason, many of them do not.
Under no circumstances does pngrewrite change the actual pixel colors, or
background color, or transparency of the image. If it ever does, that's a
bug.
--WARNING--
This version of pngrewrite removes most extra (ancillary) information from
the PNG file, such as text comments. Although this does make the file size
smaller, the removed information may sometimes be important. For that reason,
you should only use pngrewrite on image that were created by you. The only
ancillary chunks that are NOT removed are:
gAMA - Image gamma setting
sRGB - srgb color space indicator
tIME - creation time
pHYs - physical pixel size
bKGD and tRNS - Background color and transparency are maintained.
The actual chunk may be modified according to the new color structure.
If the original image was interlaced, the new one will also be interlaced.
Pngrewrite will not work at all on images that have more than 256 colors.
Colors with the same RGB values but a different level of transparency count as different colors.
The background color counts as an extra color if it does not occur in the image.
It will also not work at all on images that have a color depth of 16 bits, since they cannot have a palette.
This is a very inefficient program. It is (relatively) slow, and uses tons of memory.
To be specific, it uses about 5 bytes per pixel, no matter what the bit depth of the image is.
This program is (hopefully) reasonably portable, and should compile
without too much effort on most ANSI C compilers. It requires the libpng
and zlib libraries. |
