Program information
-------------------
akPNG.datatype is a PNG datatype, which is based on the
latest PNG sources (zlib V1.1.3, libpng version 1.0.3).
So it does support 8 Bit color mapped files (colorspace expanded to
8 bit per component always) and True color files (24/48 Bit, alpha
channel ignored, 48 Bit 16:16:16 cut down to 24 Bit 8:8:8).
[ More detailed description can be found in akPNG.guide ]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Supported output bitmap formats:
- picture.datatype V39-42:
o (upto) 256 palette colors
o HAM6 or HAM8
- picture.datatype V43 (CyberGraphX or Picasso96 *) or V44 (OS 3.5)
o 24 Bit RGB
Where upto 256 colors always will be exported unmodified,
and 24 Bit data either is dithered or converted to HAM6/HAM8,
if it can't be or should not be exported unmodified.
(*) the latter one works with OCS/ECS/AGA, too
