translucide (French) = translucent (English)

Sorry, that confused me for a bit.

"Boolean transparency" means that the pixel is either fully 
transparent, or fully opaque. Never partially transparent.

The area outside of the line is fine, it should be 
transparent and it is in your image. This is correct.

What is suffering from "boolean transparency" are the edges 
of the line. For example:

In your example script, one alpha value was 63, and the 
other was 127. In your output PNG, those values have been 
changed to 0 and 127.

I should mention that if you are using Microsoft's Internet 
Explorer version 6 or less, a PNG image will display with 
boolean transparency due to a bug in the browser. So you 
won't be able to see the difference. Use FireFox.

Pardon? What is a boolean transparency?

Please understand these three things:
- The transparent color is one *color*, an index for palette  based
image or 32bits value for truecolor images. It defines which color is
used as the *background* color (like white is   the background color of
a white paper).

- The *alpha* channel of a pixel defines how translucide the pixel has
to be. It has nothing to do with the transparent color.

- Your image has *no* transparent color but many pixels with various
*alpha* levels.

Load the result images in your favourite paint programs to see what I
mean. The area outside the line is translucide, it is due to the alpha
channel.

But that has one of the bugs that I pointed out: boolean 
transparency. The original doesn't have that problem.

Use the code I just gave you, it does create the resized version (by
copying):

I ran your code before I posted my last comment, but I still 
don't know what you are implying. The results are exactly as I 
expect them to be.

If this bug is bogus, please tell me how I can create an 
enlarged version of test.png? It isn't possible without 
applying a fix.

"I am aware that the image is fully black, except for 
variations in alpha. That is why this is a bug related to 
the alpha channel and not any other."

You are not aware that your image is *NOT* fully black.

Background color (the transparent color) is not the same than a color
with a ALPHA component. Please run the code I gave you, read the
results (like the values of the channels in these two pixels, or any
other).
