But, if you just need to convert to grayscale, look at PIL.Image.convert.<BR/><BR/>Beyond that I would recommend using ImageMagick's convert function. Changing bit depth gets tricky since you might need to quantize colors.nickghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04659163622120256748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8885167082319491081.post-24448868072001536962007-09-26T20:09:00.000-04:002007-09-26T20:09:00.000-04:002007-09-26T20:09:00.000-04:00Hey there...<BR/><BR/>I'm actually trying to save out a PNG at a new bitdepth using PIL and Python with no success so far. Is this at all related to what you're exploring here? Have any suggestions?Taylorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17992775320337684601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8885167082319491081.post-81208597496714576352007-09-14T12:01:00.000-04:002007-09-14T12:01:00.000-04:002007-09-14T12:01:00.000-04:00Hi, thanks for the comment. I have not explored metadata for other image types very much. For JPEG images, I know http://www.adobe.com/products/xmp/ and http://www.disc-info.org/ are widely used so some tool must exist for them.<BR/><BR/>I'll take a look at what PIL offers here and report back.nickghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04659163622120256748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8885167082319491081.post-21564928272819368962007-09-12T01:50:00.000-04:002007-09-12T01:50:00.000-04:002007-09-12T01:50:00.000-04:00Thanks for this one. Any idea on how to carry out the same trick for jpegs and tiffs? The JpegImagePlugin module doesn't have an equivalent JpegInfo function, and there is no TiffImagePlugin module at all ...Edwardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14309607979821676525noreply@blogger.com
