It would be a good idea to place some limitations and requirements on PNG file data in OpenRaster files.
Proposal: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/OpenRaster/Draft/PngDataRequirements Could interested parties on this list please read the proposal and comment on the text here? Thanks. Quick summary: * Recommend the PNG format for layer data. It's a good format for flat raster graphics, and permitting any format for use in layers will be problematic. Should I leave more room open for things like SVG layers? * State that CM information should be written to PNGs inside ORA files, and read/used when loading them (without placing any requirements on pixel storage inside apps) * Advise writers to not use interlacing (it's not like ORA is a streaming format). * Thumbnails should be sRGB for greater compatibility with desktop thumbnail management software. -- Andrew Chadwick _______________________________________________ CREATE mailing list CREATE@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/create
