Hello, I am trying to read and crop a 16-bit png image. The info I get from imagemagick's identify follows below. Once loaded into gimp, the image appears to be a 8-bit. After cropping and saving as png, it turns out to be 8-bit according to imagemagick;s identify (info below).
Is there a way to use gimp to read, crop, and save the image with same bit depth? If not, is there an alternative package I could use? Suggestions appreciated.
