Lets say I load a JPEG with an embedded profile. Do I transform FROM that profile to another one before I do any manipulation to the image, or is it safe to leave the data "as is" read from the file until I'm ready to DISPLAY the image, then transform from the JPEG's profile to the user-selected profile (ie. Adobe sRGB, Apple RGB, ColorMatch, etc)? The same goes for a JPEG WITHOUT an embedded profile. How/when does it get transformed? Do I just create a "null" transform for it? I've already written code to extract an embedded profile from a JPEG, and I have a menu for selecting the desired display profile. I just need to know where to do the actual transform. -- Paul Miller | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | www.fxtech.com | Got Tivo? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
