Palette Format
A palette is a set of colors optimized for use on display devices with a limited number of colors. A palette is defined by a palette resource or a palette data structure, each of which describes for each color in the palette the RGB color value, how the color is to be used, and its tolerance value if the color only needs to be approximated. See "The Palette Resource" (page 1-30) in Advanced Color Imaging Reference for information on the structure of a palette resource. See "The Palette Structure" (page 1-5) in the same book for details on the palette structure. A palette structure contains a series of color information structures that specify information for each color in the palette.
