My camera merely tags the colorspace by setting the Interoperability Index tag to R03 (Adobe RGB) in the exif. It does _not_ embed the profile in the jpeg. Only Geeqie image viewer seems to know how to deal with this tag properly, as far as I can tell. ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
Re: [Gimp-user] EXIF support in latest Gimp
If your gimp is built with exif support, you should not need to do this. When I open an image with an embedded Adobe RGB, Gimp will recognize it and offer to convert to sRGB.

Re: [Gimp-user] EXIF support in latest Gimp
I have come with the following workaround for pictures tagged as Adobe RGB which comes without an embedded profile: I apply the profile manually using imagemagick. The command boils down to this: convert _DSF2455.JPG -profile /usr/share/color/icc/colord/AdobeRGB1998.icc _DSF2455_with_profile.JPG After the profile is embedded, Firefox will display it nicely (and asks if I want to convert it to sRGB upon opening). It would still be very nice to see proper EXIF tag support to remove this additional step when working with Adobe RGB files produced by certain cameras (for example the Fujifilm X100). ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list

OK, Have a look at; http://docs.gimp.org/2.8/en/gimp-pimping.html#gimp-prefs-color-management Do you have color management activated in the preferences? Do you have a monitor profile? $ exiftool _DSF2455.JPG |grep Intero Interoperability Index : R03 - DCF option file (Adobe RGB) Interoperability Version: 0100 There should be many .icc files in /use/share/color/icc I occasionally get an image sent to me with an embedded profile, gimp asks me if sRGB will do to replace it. Anyway, that's about the end of my knowledge. -- Owen ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list

It doesn't. It is my understanding that most camera manufacturers don't include a profile. They merely tag the colorspace, which makes sense if the profile is readily available.
