NAME
       tificc - little cms ICC profile applier for TIFF.

SYNOPSIS
       tificc [options] input.tif output.tif

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.

OPTIONS
       -a     Handle channels > 4 as alpha.

       -b     Black point compensation.

       -c NUM Precalculates transform (0=Off, 1=Normal, 2=Hi-res, 3=LoRes) [defaults to 1].

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

       -e     Embed destination profile.

       -g     Marks out-of-gamut colors on softproof.

       -h NUM Show summary of options and examples (0=help, 1=Examples, 2=Built-in profiles, 3=Contact information)

       -i profile
	      Input profile (defaults to sRGB).

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

       -l profile
	      Transform by device-link profile.

       -m TODO: check if values outside 0..3 are possible
	      SoftProof intent [defaults to 0].

       -n     Ignore embedded profile on input.

       -o profile
	      Output profile (defaults to sRGB).

       -p profile
	      Soft proof profile.

       -s newprofile
	      Save embedded profile as newprofile.

       -t NUM 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     Verbose.

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

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
       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
