Source-reported description

The fullest retained description is shown with its source. Distribution packaging descriptions may include downstream details.

pngquant converts 24/32-bit RGBA PNG images to 8-bit palette with alpha channel preserved. Such images are compatible with all modern web browsers and a compatibility setting is available to help transparency degrade well in Internet Explorer 6. Quantized files are often 40-70 percent smaller than their 24/32-bit version. pngquant uses the median cut algorithm.
