The imagetruecolortopalette() function is an inbuilt function in PHP which is used to convert a true color image to a palette image. Syntax:
bool imagetruecolortopalette( $image, $dither, $ncolors )
Parameters: This function accepts three parameters as mentioned above and described below:
  • $image: It is returned by one of the image creation functions, such as imagecreatetruecolor(). It is used to create size of image.
