RE: PNG image type

[Software FX]

We generate PNG files with a GIF extension because there is an issue when Netscape read PNG files, even though we have tried with almost every possible combination for the MIME type, Netscape shows an erratic behavior when displaying files with a PNG extension.

If you want to modify this you will need to change an entry in the following registry key 

\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{BB5A24F9-D3C9-11D2-8AE0-9442C1A95F3C}\SfxImg 

Set the Extension value to png if you want your files to have a png extension.

Conversation: PNG image type 

Subject: PNG image type 

Hi, 

I use PNG format image generation whenever possible: 

a PNG image is created, but the .GIF extension is used for 

the generated image. Is there a way to generate a .PNG extension 

for my files ? 

Thanks, 

   Christophe.
