<p>Convert specified image to and Indexed image</p>
<p>This procedure converts the specified image to 'indexed' color. This
process requires an image in RGB or Grayscale mode. The
'palette_type' specifies what kind of palette to use, A type of '0'
means to use an optimal palette of 'num_cols' generated from the
colors in the image. A type of '1' means to re-use the previous
palette (not currently implemented). A type of '2' means to use the
so-called WWW-optimized palette. Type '3' means to use only black
and white colors. A type of '4' means to use a palette from the gimp
palettes directories. The 'dither type' specifies what kind of
dithering to use. '0' means no dithering, '1' means standard
Floyd-Steinberg error diffusion, '2' means Floyd-Steinberg error
diffusion with reduced bleeding, '3' means dithering based on pixel
location ('Fixed' dithering).</p>
