Hi Spencer, This may be easy, but still I don't fully understand what you mean with "value inputs from different input profiles". If this means different combinations of RGB numbers, for example (10, 20, 30) (128, 128, 128) and so, then it is quite easy to solve:
Using your favorite image editing app, create a tiff file with patches. Use each RGB combination you want to check for the patches. Save the tiff file as untagged, don't embed any profile. This will be a deviceRGB only file. Then use tifficc and specify the profile you want to check as input profile. The default output is already sRGB tifficc -i <put here the profile name> tiff_device_rgbb.tif output.tif In output.tiff you will get the sRGB equivalents, *but* - Colors out of sRGB gamut will be clipped, you may want to use perceptual sRGB V4 profile for better out of gamut handling. - I don't see any practical application of that anyway. In the other hand, what you probably want to do is soft proofing. This can also be done with tifficc, but is a little bit more complex: Create a L*a*b tiff with patches of intended *colors*. Lab tiff has huge gamut and can cope with whatever. If lab tiff cannot contain a color, then neither ICC profiles. Note that I say colors, since Lab is colorimetric. An Lab value does specify a color, an RGB value does not. Use tifficc softproofing feature. -p <profile> and -m <intent>, this would give you the color appearance in sRGB space. I guess this is what you really intend to do.
