    PNGCrush, PNGOut, OptiPNG, PNGQuant... First two are probably the best.
    But as PNG is really well compressed by default, don't expect any serious file size reduction.

    It depends on the particular image. For a photo like one, converting to JPG could be a good idea, but with a line art image, this would result in terrible quality loss due to JPG's lossy compression algorithm.
