To batch convert palettes from one file format to another

  • From the File menu, choose Batch
  • From the Batch dialogue, click the Add button and select one or more palette files to convert
  • Use the Type field to select the output format of the source palettes
  • Optionally, enter the folder where the converted palettes will be saved using the Folder field
  • By default, the batch process will not overwrite existing files. To force an overwrite, check the Overwrite existing files option
  • Click Start to begin the conversion process

Important

Not all palette formats support all given features, e.g. grouping or swatch names. Some formats also support a greater colour precision than other formats. If you convert a palette from one format to another, or save a palette with features not supported by the format you are saving as, some information may be lost.

Padding palette files

Some applications may require that palettes have a minimum number of colours in them. The batch conversion process can automatically pad, or grow, palettes that don't contain enough colours.

  • From the Batch dialogue check the Pad files option
  • Specify the minimum number of colours that should be present in the palette
  • Specify a colour to be used as padding

Note

This feature will only add new colours to smaller palettes, it does not remove colours from palettes that are larger than the specified minimum.
