Hello Marti, hello graeme, hello list

It would be useful to have an easy way to convert color adjustments to an abstract-profile or an devicelink-profile, which could applied in every application, which uses lcms or argyllcms.

Concerning devicelink-profiles i have following questions to marti, graeme or other CMM-developers:

Is there code available, which can convert an ASCII file to a devicelinkprofile ?

The ASCII-File represents the of input- an output-colorvalues, which should linked together in a CGATS / ISO style like e.g.

>>
IS12642
ORIGINATOR      "My application"
DESCRIPTOR      "Enhance-Saturation"
CREATED "2005-06-10"

KEYWORD CONTROL

NUMBER_OF_FIELDS 7

BEGIN_DATA_FORMAT
SAMPLE_ID       RGBin_R RGBin_G RGBin_B RGBout_R
RGBout_G RGBout_B

END_DATA_FORMAT

NUMBER_OF_SETS  729

BEGIN_DATA

1       0       0       0       0       0       0
2       7       0       0       2       3       8
3       15      0       0       4       7       17
....

END_DATA

The resulting workflow should be like:
A tool for coloradjustment transforms a standard-set of ASCII-colorvalues and produces such an ASCII-File, wich represents the original and the adjusted colorvalues. In the next step, this ASCII-file is internally transformed to an devicelink-profile. The user has now the possibility to store the coloradjustment as devicelink-profile. This would make it possible to build in every dialogue for coloradjustment a menue "save as devicelink-profile"

The next step would be "recorder for for coloradjustments"
This would be an image wich contains pixel-representations of the
devicecolorvalues in the ASCII-file.
The colors of this image can be adjusted with every tool you want after each other. You could also first transform the image with an ICC-transformation and then add some coloradjustments.

At the end, the pixelvalues are converted to ASCII-values and put together with the original ASCII-values to an ASCII-file for devicelink-creation.

This would make it possible to save very complex coloradjustments into one devicelink-profile. Or a complete ICC-transformation can be finetuned with the normal tools for coloradjsutments from the imaging application.

My question:
- Is there code for converting ASCII to a devicelink-profile ?
- Is there code for converting imagepixel to ASCII ?
- can we integrate this in lcms ?

greetings from the colorspace
