Hi. I'm new to the PIL library and having problems while converting 24 bits png to gif. While the conversion works fine from an image quality perspective, the resultant gif image size is very large. Much larger than the original 24 bit png! Carrying out the same conversion in other image programs (irfanview, gimp) produces an image of about a quarter of the size as my code.
I use the following code to carry out the conversion. img = Image.open(self.input) img = img.convert('RGB').convert('P', palette=Image.ADAPTIVE) img.save(self.output,"gif") I use an adaptive palette since I'm converting maps and dithering reduces the quality. Any tips/suggestions are welcome.
