However only the RGBA channels will be read, and if any of these do not exist in a file they will
default to a proper fill value in the loaded bitmap. OpenEXR images use the same bitdepth and
precision that &k3d; use internally for bitmaps. See <ulink url="http://www.openexr.org">http://www.openexr.org</ulink>.
