Hi, This is up to profile builder and the intent. For example, in the lcms profiler, perceptual intent does rescale dynamic range to DMin/Dmax. Relative colorimetric does not.
In scanners such rescaling would be desirable, but not in digital cameras .

Hello, I have come across the following in various places: The luminance of DMin and DMax on an IT8 target will cause any whiter white and blacker black to be clipped. In other words: if using a profiled scanner, the dynamic range will be limited to that of the IT8 target. Is this correct? If so, does this apply to all profile types? -- Regards, Tarlika Elisabeth Schmitz ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
