icc_profile_conversion.md

Example showing how to perform an ICC profile-to-profile conversion using ImageMagick.

  1. Download test image: wget -O in.tif https://storage.googleapis.com/comstock.cc/icc/ICC_profile_test_image_Farbkreis_120grad.tif
  • Wanna see which ICC profile is embedded in the test image, in.tif? Run: exiftool -ProfileDescription in.tif
  1. Download an ICC profile: wget -O sRGB_ICC_v4_Appearance.icc https://storage.googleapis.com/comstock.cc/icc/sRGB_ICC_v4_Appearance.icc
  • Wanna extract the ICC profile from an image? Run: convert in.tif in.icc
  1. Using ImageMagick, convert the test image (in.tif) with its embedded ColorSpin ICC profile to an image (out.tif) with an embedded sRGB ICC profile:

convert in.tif -profile ./sRGB_ICC_v4_Appearance.icc out.tif

  • Wanna see which ICC profile is embedded in the output tiff file, out.tif? Run: exiftool -ProfileDescription out.tif
