I don't how photosuite works, but if you can get it to reduce the picture to 4-color greyscale, you might see an improvement. When ProntoEdit converts down to 4 color, it usually ends up awful. It also might help to reduce the size of the picture before you change to greyscale. Sharpening can also help.

For an example of what grayscale photos should look like on the Pronto, see [Link: remotecentral.com] (the second photo is for the ProntoPro).

Probably you have more than 8 bits per pixel. Try converting to Indexed color, and then back to RGB. Then you should be able to pick 1, 4 or 8 color bits per pixel. Pick 8.

I know a great way to get a picture looking good in 4 bit mode, is to turn up the contrast in the color image- then convert to 4 bit. Exeriement to see where the best amount of contrst will help- it is usually a great deal.
