  • NAME
      icclink - little cms device link generator.
  • SYNOPSIS
      icclink [ options ]
  • DESCRIPTION
      lcms is a standalone CMM engine, which deals with the color management. It implements a fast transformation between ICC profiles. icclink is little cms device link generator. Links two or more profiles into a single devicelink profile. Colorspaces must be paired except Lab/XYZ, that can be interchanged.
  • OPTIONS
      -8
      Creates 8-bit devicelink.
      -b
      Black point compensation.
      -c <0,1,2,3>
      Precission (0=LowRes, 1=Normal, 2=Hi-res). [defaults to 1]
      -d description
      Description text (quotes can be used).
      -h <0,1,2,3>
      Show summary of options and examples.
      -i profile
      Input profile (defaults to sRGB).
      -k <0..400>
      Ink-limiting in % (CMYK only)
      -o profile
      Output devicelink profile. [defaults to 'devicelink.icm']
      -t <0,1,2,3>
      Intent (0=Perceptual, 1=Colorimetric, 2=Saturation, 3=Absolute).
      -x
      Creatively, guess deviceclass of resulting profile.
      
      Built-in profiles:
      	*Lab  -- D50-based CIEL*a*b (PCS)
      	*XYZ  -- CIE XYZ (PCS)
      	*sRGB -- sRGB color space
      	*Gray22- Monochrome of Gamma 2.2
      	*Lin2222- CMYK linearization of gamma 2.2 on each channel
      
  • EXAMPLES
      
      To create 'devicelink.icm' from a.icc to b.icc:
      	icclink a.icc b.icc
      
      To create 'out.icc' from sRGB to cmyk.icc:
      	icclink -o out.icc *sRGB cmyk.icc
      
      To create a sRGB input profile working in Lab:
      	icclink -x -o sRGBLab.icc *sRGB *Lab
      
      To create a XYZ -> sRGB output profile:
      	icclink -x -o sRGBLab.icc *XYZ *sRGB
      
      To create a abstract profile doing softproof for cmyk.icc:
      	icclink -t1 -x -o softproof.icc *Lab cmyk.icc cmyk.icc *Lab
      
      To create a 'grayer' sRGB input profile:
      	icclink -x -o grayer.icc *sRGB gray.icc gray.icc *Lab
      
      To embed ink limiting into a cmyk output profile:
      	icclink -x -o cmyklimited.icc -k 250 cmyk.icc *Lab
