Regarding BABL: i've had a look at extensions/CIE.c and found conversion routines using linear light RGB with the sRGB primaries and white point -- that is scRGB. Everything fine here. Now i'm not familier with BABL -- possibly i've checked at the wrong routines? Regarding the Decompose plug-in: yes, that seems to use the PAL stuff. However, i'd be surprised if that makes a really big difference. What's more important, is that i couldn't find any routine which respects the gamma curve defined by sRGB. regards, yahvuu _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
