OK, so that is a bug in DPlngScan 1.23. It has labelled the sprite as
a CMYK sprite but its contents seem to be RGB data. By the way, have
you ever tried loading that sprite back into DPlngScan?

Into any program that works correctly and that accepts the given jpeg,
but without having seen it it is hard to say. ChangeFSI would be one
option.

Yes, it would. Even a standard baseline JPEG whould do. Your JPEG must
have been in a special format, maybe it was one of these rare CMYK
JPEGs I have not seen yet. I would be interested in seeing a copy.
