NAME

6       icclink - little cms device link generator.
7

SYNOPSIS

9       icclink [options] <profiles>
10

DESCRIPTION

12       lcms is a standalone CMM engine, which deals with the color management.
13       It implements a fast transformation between ICC profiles.   icclink  is
14       little cms device link generator.
15
16       Links  two  or  more  profiles  into a single devicelink profile.  Col‐
17       orspaces must be paired except Lab/XYZ, that can be interchanged.
18

OPTIONS

20       -8     Creates 8-bit devicelink.
21
22       -b     Black point compensation.
23
24       -c <0,1,2,3>
25              Precission (0=LowRes, 1=Normal, 2=Hi-res). [defaults to 1]
26
27       -d description
28              Description text (quotes can be used).
29
30       -h <0,1,2,3>
31              Show summary of options and examples.
32
33       -i profile
34              Input profile (defaults to sRGB).
35
36       -k <0..400>
37              Ink-limiting in % (CMYK only)
38
39       -o profile
40              Output devicelink profile. [defaults to 'devicelink.icm']
41
42       -t <0,1,2,3>
43              Intent (0=Perceptual, 1=Colorimetric, 2=Saturation, 3=Absolute).
44
45       -x     Creatively, guess deviceclass of resulting profile.
46
47       Built-in profiles:
48                   *Lab  -- D50-based CIEL*a*b (PCS)
49                   *XYZ  -- CIE XYZ (PCS)
50                   *sRGB -- sRGB color space
51                   *Gray22- Monochrome of Gamma 2.2
52                   *Lin2222- CMYK linearization of gamma 2.2 on each channel
53

EXAMPLES

55       To create 'devicelink.icm' from a.icc to b.icc:
56            icclink a.icc b.icc
57
58       To create 'out.icc' from sRGB to cmyk.icc:
59            icclink -o out.icc *sRGB cmyk.icc
60
61       To create a sRGB input profile working in Lab:
62            icclink -x -o sRGBLab.icc *sRGB *Lab
63
64       To create a XYZ -> sRGB output profile:
65            icclink -x -o sRGBLab.icc *XYZ *sRGB
66
67       To create a abstract profile doing softproof for cmyk.icc:
68            icclink -t1 -x -o softproof.icc *Lab cmyk.icc cmyk.icc *Lab
69
70       To create a 'grayer' sRGB input profile:
71            icclink -x -o grayer.icc *sRGB gray.icc gray.icc *Lab
72
73       To embed ink limiting into a cmyk output profile:
74            icclink -x -o cmyklimited.icc -k 250 cmyk.icc *Lab
