Hello Bob, Thank you very much for your reply. Our main application uses either DirectX or OpenGL or Software rendering (user's choice). The main application loads plugins. The plugins can be either supporting 2D or 3D which is determined by the type of the plugin. The 2D plugin works on various image formats like jpeg, bmp, tiff, giff, png, ppm, pdf ................tons of other formats. Till now color managment had been ignored. Our customers have asked for color management support. We have chosen our Tiff plugin to support color management for proof of concept for the customers. For Tiff we use the "libtiff" library. Later on we plan to support color management to other possible formats like jpeg, png, pdf etc. in which color management info can be embedded.
I am a newbie in color management with 3-4 days of reseach work in color management. Right now our Tiff plugin will do the transformation for tiff files using any suitable CMM. We will later on integrate the CMM centrally to handle other formats like jpeg, png, pdf etc. According to you, GraphicsMagick will handle Tiff. That is fine (more than fine :-) ). Does it handle other formats like jpeg, png, pdfs too? We need support for alpha channels, 16 bit per channel support (64 bits for RGBA) Please give me as much suggestions and information as you can. This is kind of a brain-storming to me as well. I thought it wise to mention you about DirectX and OpenGL because they may have a role to play in color management as well.
