Color management on Windows would ideally be implemented using the color management capabilities of the operating system. Same on Mac OS X where ColorSync should be used. For now we will however concentrate on the LCMS based implementation and of course we will make sure that it works on all supported platforms. > I think that it could be useful if that user can add additional > profiles directories to the default ones.

I don't think we need to provide a way to specify profile directories. GIMP will remember the last location you loaded profiles from and if you need to use multiple profile directories, it's easy to add bookmarks for them. This goes however way too much into details yet. We can figure out such usability concerns as soon as the basic framework has been put in place. > But I have checked that the "icc-profile" parasite can be recovered > from a Tiff file, but not from a jpg file. I assume that "icc-profile" > parasite can be stored in tiff, but not in jpg. ICC profiles can be stored in TIFF files. The parasite is just the way that GIMP deals with this information. I don't know off the top of my head if JPEG allows to embed ICC profiles. Since I would rather get back to work on the color management implementation, I kindly ask you to look that up in the JPEG spec yourself. http://developer.gimp.org/standards.html has some links that you might find useful. If you know of any URLs that should be added there, let me know. Sven
