+ The ImageLoaderPNG and ImageLoaderRawPNG have a hard-coded penalty of 1000 and as such the
+ ImageLoaderImageIO image loader will be selected by default when loading PNGs unless
+ the latter is disabled by awarding a INFINITE penalty to it, or one of the former two is
+ promoted by awarding a strong negative penalty (say, -10000) to it.

- PNG images are supported through an Image&nbsp;I/O codec. Transparency is supported but
- not guaranteed to work with every output format.
+ FOP native support of PNG only includes the variants with 8 bits per channel and without
+ interlacing. Native support requires using the ImageLoaderRawPNG image loader.
+ Support through a Image I/O codec can use either the internal XGC PNG codec or the JRE PNG
+ codec. The associated image loaders are, respectively, ImageLoaderPNG and ImageLoaderImageIO.
+ Transparency is supported but not guaranteed to work with every output format.
