# [NAME](#NAME)

tificc - little cms ICC profile applier for TIFF.

# [SYNOPSIS](#SYNOPSIS)

**tificc** \[*options*] *input.tif output.tif*

# [DESCRIPTION](#DESCRIPTION)

lcms is a standalone CMM engine, which deals with the color management. It implements a fast transformation between ICC profiles. **tificc** is a little cms ICC profile applier for TIFF.

[**-d NUM**](#d)

Observer adaptation state (abs.col. only), (0..1.0, float value) \[defaults to 0.0].

[**-e**](#e)

Embed destination profile.

[**-g**](#g)

Marks out-of-gamut colors on softproof.

[**-i profile**](#i)

Input profile (defaults to sRGB).

[**-k inklimit**](#k)

Ink-limiting in % (CMYK only), (0..400.0, float value) \[default 400.0].

[**-l profile**](#l)

Transform by device-link profile.

[**-m TODO: check if values outside 0..3 are possible**](#m)

SoftProof intent \[defaults to 0].

[**-n**](#n)

Ignore embedded profile on input.

[**-o profile**](#o)

Output profile (defaults to sRGB).

[**-p profile**](#p)

Soft proof profile.

[**-s newprofile**](#s)

Save embedded profile as *newprofile*.

[**-t NUM**](#t)

Rendering intent

```
0=Perceptual [default]
1=Relative colorimetric
2=Saturation
3=Absolute colorimetric
10=Perceptual preserving black ink
11=Relative colorimetric preserving black ink
12=Saturation preserving black ink
13=Perceptual preserving black plane
14=Relative colorimetric preserving black plane
15=Saturation preserving black plane
```

```

```

[**-v**](#v)

Verbose.

[**-w NUM**](#w)

Output depth (8, 16 or 32). Use 32 for floating-point.

# [BUILT-IN PROFILES](#BUILT-IN_PROFILES)

```
	*Lab2  -- D50-based v2 CIEL*a*b
	*Lab4  -- D50-based v4 CIEL*a*b
	*Lab   -- D50-based v4 CIEL*a*b
	*XYZ   -- CIE XYZ (PCS)
	*sRGB  -- sRGB color space
	*Gray22 - Monochrome of Gamma 2.2
	*Gray30 - Monochrome of Gamma 3.0
	*null   - Monochrome black for all input
	*Lin2222- CMYK linearization of gamma 2.2 on each channel
```

# [EXAMPLES](#EXAMPLES)

```
To color correct from scanner to sRGB:
	tificc -iscanner.icm in.tif out.tif
To convert from monitor1 to monitor2:
	tificc -imon1.icm -omon2.icm in.tif out.tif
To make a CMYK separation:
	tificc -oprinter.icm inrgb.tif outcmyk.tif
To recover sRGB from a CMYK separation:
	tificc -iprinter.icm incmyk.tif outrgb.tif
To convert from CIELab TIFF to sRGB
	tificc -i*Lab in.tif out.tif
```
