RGBO to PALM conversion is the process of transforming image files stored in the RGBO format — a raster image variant that includes red, green, blue and an opacity (alpha) channel — into the PALM format, a palette-based image/container used for efficient indexed-color graphics. This conversion maps RGBO's full-color plus alpha pixels to PALM's indexed palette (optionally with alpha support), optimizing color usage and file size while preserving visual fidelity where possible.
