file or a good and readable tiff?

Good & readable. In my experience, this is often the case. In any case, you only need the palette for the colors used......

The file is incorrect. Whether it's possible to workaround it is another question. My library doesn't currently accept colormap tags w/ an incorrect number of entries (e.g. 230 instead of 256). There's virtually nothing to be gained by not writing the extra slots in the map with 0 or some other "don't care" value.
