Subject: [magick-users] Colour mapping and reduction
X-MARC-Message: https://marc.info/?l=imagemagick-user&m=102495151903310

I want to take an image, map the colours to a specific set of colours
and reduce the number of colours in the image to a specific number.  I
created a bmp file containing the palette of colours that I wanted to
use and have used the command:

convert -map palette.bmp -colors 50 image.png

I have also tried reversing the options, but the final image either
has colours that aren't in the specified palette or there are more
colours than I requested.

I have also tried doing the conversion in 2 passes, with the same
results.

Am I going about this the wrong way or are the options mutually
exclusive?

Thanks for any help

Steve
