[OpenJDK 2D-Dev] OpenJDK and lcms color management (soft-proofing)

[Claudio Wilmanns]

Hi Andrew,

thanks for your answer, too.

If I understand you right, JNI gives me access to the Kodak CMM¹s C
interface. OK, that¹s interesting. But I assume that there is some
overhead involved in converting a Java image buffer to a format the CMM
interface understands. Anyway, I found the Kodak CMM API here
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19695-01/802-2012/802-2012.pdf, is this the
correct document for use with JNI?

Could be a little more specific what you are suggesting in your second
paragraph? I guess I understand what you mean, but I¹d like to know the
steps that are neccessary to do to achieve the goal.
Let¹s say I have a source RGB image in AdobeRGB colorspace and want to
convert it to a CMYK colorspace, then do a softproof from that CMYK
colorspace to the display colorspace, that is represented by a custom ICC
profile.

Could you briefly outline the last part (CMYK ‹> display) using your
kludgy workaround in Java?

Best Regads
Claudio
