MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - Sony Reader for PC -- not rendering 16-color png

GrannyGrump · 09-21-2013, 09:12 AM

well, as I hope some members will note, Alex tested some of my 16-shades-of-gray PNGS on several readers, and got mixed results.

I had always been under the impression that if a reader could render 256-colors, it certainly should be able to render 16-colors.

I would surely appreciate if some more folks could do some testing, both with the epub I attached to the first post, and with some other 16-shades-grey pngs. Maybe my graphics editor does something weird to that particular combination (PaintShop Pro, v 9)

I hope to hear from some of you, and try to track down where the problem is centered.

Thanks.
