Description matteosistisette 2011-10-16 19:35:24 UTC 
When rendering a pdf to a png using the "png16m" or "pngalpha" devices, the colors in the output image are screwed up.

In particular i've noticed that colors are a lot lighter, or at least greens are rendered a lot lighter than in the original file.

I've seen this reported in many forums (without any workaround) but curiously enough this is not in the bugtracker...

Example command:

gs -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dUseCropBox -sDEVICE=png16m -r100  -sOutputFile=outputfile.png inputfile.pdf

Sorry yes it was in the bugtracker (692072) and it is fixed in the latest version. 

I did search, but the search engine only searches for open bugs by default, that's why I didn't find it :$
