png \- Portable Network Graphics (PNG) format |
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION |
|
PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is an extensible file format for the |
|
lossless, portable, well-compressed storage of raster images. PNG |
|
provides a patent-free replacement for GIF, and can also replace many |
|
common uses of TIFF. Indexed-color, grayscale, and truecolor images are |
|
supported, plus an optional alpha channel. Sample depths range from |
|
1 to 16 bits. |
|
.br |
|
PNG is designed to work well in online viewing applications, such |
|
as the World Wide Web, so it is fully streamable with a progressive |
|
display option. PNG is robust, providing both full file integrity |
|
checking and fast, simple detection of common transmission errors. |
|
Also, PNG can store gamma and chromaticity data for improved color |
|
matching on heterogeneous platforms. |
