Good morning/evening, Re: issue #239 [1], it looks like there are 3 different ways of storing textual information in a PNG file: iTXT, zTXt and tEXt. Couple of questions: (a) what are current best practices for encoders? In particular, is it acceptable for encoders to include the same keyword in multiple text chunks? (b) what is the level of support in decoders for each of the three chunks? What is the decoder behavior when encountering the same keyword in multiple chunks? How widespread is the implementation of each of the three chunks? Data points on these questions would help refine the prose, which is pretty confusing, as identified in #239. Best, -- Pierre [1] https://github.com/w3c/PNG-spec/issues/239
