From: "Branko Collin" <collin@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 29 Mar 2002 23:10:12 +0100 Regis Rampnoux recently made a plug-in which can be found at <http://registry.gimp.org/plugin?id=1557>. I am not sure I entirely understand what it does, but it looks like it applies the curve directly, rather than converting it to a GIMP curve first. I seem to remember he was working on another plug-in for Photoshop curves. I'd really like to see somebody do this as a front end to the Gimp-Print plugin (perhaps with some of the core incorporated into the Gimp-print core). I'll be happy to accept someone who wants to work on this onto the Gimp-print project. With the current 8 bit only GIMP, this really needs to happen at the printing stage. Applying this kind of transform to 8-bit data means losing a lot of information; in 16 bits (which Gimp-print uses internally), this isn't a problem. Gimp-print has a 16-bit raw CMYK printing mode that's ideal for this kind of thing. -- Robert Krawitz <rlk@xxxxxxxxxxxx> http://www.tiac.net/users/rlk/ Tall Clubs International -- http://www.tall.org/ or 1-888-IM-TALL-2 Member of the League for Programming Freedom -- mail lpf@xxxxxxxxxxxx Project lead for Gimp Print/stp -- http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net "Linux doesn't dictate how I work, I dictate how Linux works." --Eric Crampton
