Since many FITS files contain data that is outside the dynamic range of WinImages F/x and WinImages Morph's 8-bit channel depth, the Importer examines the file for the total dynamic range represented and then scales that linearly and proportionally into the range 0-255 as greyscale. For instance, if a FITS file contained values that ranged from 20,000 to -10,000, the Importer will scale the data so that -10,000 is zero, 5,000 is 128, and 20,000 is 255. In this way, the Importer uses WinImages F/x's entire available dynamic range to represent the data. It is then often useful to apply WinImages F/x's channel map operator with a custom palette to further help visualize the file data.
