DeBabelizer includes a number of palettes you can use as base palettes, including both Windows and Macintosh system palettes and the web browser-safe palette. If the images are going to be 16 colors, simply use the Mac default 16 colors in a Set Palette and Remap operation. To create a 256-color (8-bit) Mac-compliant palette for your images, use the Reduce Colors dialog to create a custom palette with a required base palette, and choose one of the Mac default options for the base palette. The easiest method for creating a 256-color (8-bit) Windows-compliant palette and remapping a group of images is to first use the Standard Workflow – SuperPalette process to produce 236 custom palette colors, then add the 20 default Windows colors at the first 10 and last 10 index positions in the palette.
