Thanks for the details, but maybe I'm still doing something wrong?
I'm using xtool version 0.8.7.
My manual translation of your script format command and options for manual input within an elevated command box were now -
Code:
xtool precomp -mreflate+png -d1 Hint.png hint_png.xtool
Again, to be clear, I'm inputting the commands and options
directly/manually within a command box and executing the commands immediately by pressing the enter key. I am not running a script, and I'm not creating/adding anything to a (*.ini or *.bat) script at this time either.
Unfortunately I'm still getting hardly any improvement in output file size.
Input 3,642,461 bytes, output 3,642,578 bytes.
So how is it possible to get output of 13,362,043 bytes?
