[devel] Make the 16-to-8 scaling accurate. Dividing by 256 with no rounding is
wrong (high by one) 25% of the time. Dividing by 257 with rounding is
wrong in 128 out of 65536 cases. Getting the right answer all the time
without division is easy.

We added five png_set_text_*() functions for setting the parameters to

use with textual data.

Prior to libpng-1.5.3, the PNG_READ_16_TO_8_ACCURATE_SCALE_SUPPORTED
|

option was off by default, and slightly inaccurate scaling occurred.
|

This option can no longer be turned off, and 16-to-8 scaling is always
|
||||
accurate. This change will result in some different results while
|
||||
reading 16-bit images, with some of the pixels no longer being off-by-one.
