2. pngcrush - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pngcrush

   The main use of pngcrush is for reducing the size of the image data contained in the IDAT section. The pixel data in a PNG file is compressed using LZ77 algorithm (which tries to find repeated byte sequences in the source data), and then further compressed with Huffman algorithm. This combination is referred to as deflate compression. Before ...

3. Help : How to reduce colors for saving a JPEG as PNG

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:How_to_reduce_colors...

   Sometimes, you find a drawing or similar image useful for a Wikipedia article, that was saved as a JPEG but should have been saved as a PNG.JPEG is good for images where the color changes fluidly throughout the image, like in a photograph, whereas PNG files are good for images with relatively few colors, such as a drawing of a flag, a chart, or a map; note that sometimes SVG is better.

4. Image file format - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_file_format

   The PNG (Portable Network Graphics) file format was created as a free, open-source alternative to GIF. The PNG file format supports 8-bit (256 colors) paletted images (with optional transparency for all palette colors) and 24-bit truecolor (16 million colors) or 48-bit truecolor with and without alpha channel – while GIF supports only 8-bit ...

5. Image compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_compression

   Image compression is a type of data compression applied to digital images, to reduce their cost for storage or transmission. Algorithms may take advantage of visual perception and the statistical properties of image data to provide superior results compared with generic data compression methods which are used for other digital data.

6. Lossy compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lossy_compression

   While data reduction (compression, be it lossy or lossless) is a main goal of transform coding, it also allows other goals: one may represent data more accurately for the original amount of space [5] – for example, in principle, if one starts with an analog or high-resolution digital master, an MP3 file of a given size should provide a better ...

7. PNG - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PNG

   PNG files vary in size due to a number of factors: color depth Color depth can range from 1 to 64 bits per pixel. ancillary chunks PNG supports metadata—this may be useful for editing, but unnecessary for viewing, as on websites. interlacing As each pass of the Adam7 algorithm is separately filtered, this can increase file size.
