- Description:
-
- PalMaker allows you to set the 256 colour palette for either the
- Computer Concepts' ColourCard or State Machine's G8 range cards.
-
- PalMaker co-operates with a draw program like Draw or ArtWorks to
- redraw a document three times, once each for red, green and blue.
- After the three redraws, PalMaker has access to a 24-bit image of an
- area of the redrawn document. PalMaker uses then a 'color quantization'
- technique to get the best 256 colours, and sets the palette according
- to those values.
