Hi,

I wrote a small tool that uses DCRaw to read raw images from digital
cameras, and uses LCMS for some basic color management. You can check
it out at:
http://ufraw.sourceforge.net/

I'm trying to keep the user interface simple, but it is a bit
problematic. The problem is that in some cases the raw data has to be
manipulated BEFORE applying the color transformation.

For example, the profile for the Nikon D70 (it can be downloaded from
my site) requires a gamma=0.45 curve, this is a naive gamma curve of
pow(x,0.45). Other profiles seem to require a gamma curve which is
linear at the beginning. And some profiles are "linear" in the sense,
that they can be applied to the raw data directly.

Does someone know if the information on the required "preprocessing"
is embedded somewhere in the ICC profile?

I'm amateur at color management, so any other comments on the way I
apply the profiles will be welcome,

Udi
