SYNOPSIS

tifficc [options] input.tif output.tif

DESCRIPTION

lcms is a standalone CMM engine, which deals with the color management. It implements a fast transformation between ICC profiles. tifficc is little cms ICC profile applier for TIFF.

OPTIONS

-a

Handle channels > 4 as alpha.

-b

Black point compensation.

-c <0,1,2,3>

Precalculates transform. (0=Off, 1=Normal, 2=Hi-res, 3=LoRes) [defaults to 1]

-e

Embed destination profile.

-g

Marks out-of-gamut colors on softproof.

-h <0,1,2>

Show summary of options and examples.

-i profile

Input profile (defaults to sRGB).

-k <0..400>

Ink-limiting in % (CMYK only).

-l

Transform by device-link profile.

-m <0,1,2,3>

SoftProof intent.

-n

Ignore embedded profile on input.

-p profile

Soft proof profile.

-o profile

Output profile (defaults to sRGB).

-q <0..100>

Output JPEG quality.

-t <0,1,2,3>

Intent (0=Perceptual, 1=Colorimetric, 2=Saturation, 3=Absolute).

-v

Verbose.

-w

Wide output (generates 16 bps tiff).

You can also use '*Lab' and '*XYZ' as predefined, built-in profiles for CIE L*a*b* and XYZ color spaces.

EXAMPLES

To color correct from scanner to sRGB:
        tifficc -iscanner.icm in.tif out.tif
To convert from monitor1 to monitor2:
        tifficc -imon1.icm -omon2.icm in.tif out.tif
        
To make a CMYK separation:
        tifficc -oprinter.icm inrgb.tif outcmyk.tif
        
To recover sRGB from a CMYK separation:
        tifficc -iprinter.icm incmyk.tif outrgb.tif
To convert from CIELab TIFF to sRGB
        tifficc -iTiffLab8Spac.icm in.tif out.tif
