Hello, Do you mean reduce number of colors in an image? If so, you can read more information regarding to the color reducing on our site "Basic Concepts of Color Reduction". Edited by user Tuesday, October 28, 2008 12:04:28 AM(UTC)

Hello, As palette can contain no more than 256 colors, you can specify only transparent regions in your image. By-default if you convert image to indexed format, it discards alpha channel. To avoid this problem you should blend your image with some unique color - let's name this color "transparent color". So all transparent regions are marked by this "transparent color. Then you should convert your image to indexed format and then set element of palette which corresponds to "transparent color" as transparent. Here is small code sample which illustrates this idea: Code:// Color by which transparent pixels will be marked.
Aurigma.GraphicsMill.RgbColor transparentColor = Aurigma.GraphicsMill.RgbColor.Blue;
// Source bitmap with transparency.
Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap bitmap = new Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Bitmap(@"d:/images/test/Transptest.png");
// Mark all transparent pixels by transparentColor.
bitmap.Channels.DiscardAlpha(transparentColor);
// Convert image to indexed.
bitmap.ColorManagement.ConvertToIndexed(8, Aurigma.GraphicsMill.ColorPaletteType.Adaptive, null, 0, Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Transforms.DitheringType.FloydSteinberg, 1.0f);
// Set element in palette which corresponds to transparentColor as transparent.
int transparentIndex = bitmap.Palette.FindNearestIndex(transparentColor);
Aurigma.GraphicsMill.RgbColor color = bitmap.Palette[transparentIndex];
bitmap.Palette[transparentIndex] = Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Color.FromArgb(0, color.R, color.G, color.B);
// Saves the result.
bitmap.Save(@"d:/temp/test.gif");
