>From my own application.  This code does an RGB transform from a floating 
point format image to an 8bit/channel QImage.  But the same thing could be 
done to go from CMYK to RGB.  In addition to just do one color (rather than 
an image) you can eliminate the nested loops and make a single call to 
cmsDoTransform(...) and there is likely no reason for you to be doing the 
normalization either:

// A ICC profile transform on whole image


void ImageItem::TransformImage(const QString OutputProfile,
                               const QString InputProfile,
                               vigra::DRGBImage& p,
                               QImage& pout)
{
    struct dblColor
    {
        double r, g, b;
    };

    struct uint8Color
    {
        char r, g, b;
    };

    dblColor *RGB;
    uint8Color *rgb;
    double divisor;

    RGB = (dblColor*) malloc(sizeof(dblColor));
    rgb = (uint8Color*) malloc(sizeof(uint8Color));
    
    cmsHTRANSFORM xform;
    cmsHPROFILE hIn, hOut;

    hIn  = cmsOpenProfileFromFile(InputProfile.local8Bit(), "r");
    hOut = cmsOpenProfileFromFile(OutputProfile.local8Bit(), "r");
    
    xform = cmsCreateTransform(hIn, TYPE_RGB_DBL, hOut, TYPE_RGB_8,
                        /*INTENT_PERCEPTUAL*/ intent,
                        cmsFLAGS_WHITEBLACKCOMPENSATION);

    vigra::DRGBImage::Iterator point=p.upperLeft();

    if (uint8) divisor = 255.0;
    else if (int16) divisor = 65536.0;
    else if (int32) divisor = 4294967296.0;

    for (int i=0; i < p.height(); i++)
        for (int j=0; j < p.width(); j++)
        {
            if (uint8 | int16 | int32)
            {
                // scale RGB values to max = 1.0
                // since this is what is expected for
                // floating point images
                RGB->r = point(j, i).red()/divisor;
                RGB->g = point(j, i).green()/divisor;
                RGB->b = point(j, i).blue()/divisor;
            }
            else // Floating point image
                // no rescaling of RGB values needed
            {
                RGB->r = point(j, i).red();
                RGB->g = point(j, i).green();
                RGB->b = point(j, i).blue();
            }
            cmsDoTransform(xform, RGB, rgb, 1);
            pout.setPixel(j,i, qRgba ( rgb->r, rgb->g, rgb->b, 0xff));
        }

    cmsDeleteTransform(xform);
    cmsCloseProfile(hIn);
    cmsCloseProfile(hOut);
    free(RGB);
    free(rgb);
