- Load the image into DPaint as per normal.
- Now load *only the palette* from the file you wish to map to.
- ( COLOR->PALETTE->LOAD menu I think! )
-
- Now - before you do anything else, select REMAP ( COLOR->REMAP ??? )
- and you should find that DPaint will remap the image to the new palette.
-
- Other programs, such as ADPro (available on several coverdisks over the
- years), have more suffisicated methods of remapping which may produce better
- results. (They can dither the image as well!)
-
- Your question was a little ambiguous, so I hope this helps!! :->
