Reducing no.of colors in BuffereImage

[Madhavi]

Hi there!
I need Pie charts in gif format. I tried to convert into Gif Using Acme library. But I am getting an error which reads: Too many colors for a Gif.
Is there any way I can reduce no.of colors used in BufferedImage to 216.
Any ideas?? Or can U give me a code snippet which does the above functionality??
Thanks in advance

If you use PNG rather than GIF, then you won't have this problem.

Thanks for the tip! The image in PNG format looks much more clearer.
