HI Mohammed, I don't know whether PNG can handle what you want from it, whether GDAL is buggy, or whether the OSG's plugin can't handle the niche type of .png file GDAL is generating. You are a programming, have all the OSG source code available to you so if you want to delve deeper that have a go at see what might being going astray.
As a general comment, GeoTiff is the standard image format for doing geospatial work, one doesn't normally touch png for geospatial work as it's not at all designed for it. I don't know what you are looking at .png in the convtex of geosptail work. Robert.
