NAME libquanta - Colour quantisation library SYNOPSIS #include Link with -lquanta. DESCRIPTION The libquanta software library is a C library for colour quantisation of images, meaning it lets you create a colour palette for an image and convert the image to a palette-based image. The palette may have lower colour resolution and fewer colours than the original image. libquanta is not designed to convert an image to a palette-based image based on a pre-existing palette. It is only designed to create a palette suitable for a provided image. The libquanta software library implements the following functions: Colour palette functions libquanta_palette_size(3) Calculate the size of a colour palette. libquanta_malloc_palette(3) Allocate a colour palette. Colour quantisation functions libquanta_quantise(3), libquanta_vquantise(3) Colour-quantise an image using an algorithm selected by the library. libquanta_quantise_wu(3), libquanta_vquantise_wu(3) Colour-quantise an image using Wu's Colour Quantiser.
