LPROF is a color profiler that creates ICC compliant profiles for devices such as cameras, scanners, and monitors. These profiles provide color consistency across devices.
They can be used in color profile-aware software such as The Gimp and Scribus.
Camera and scanner profiles are built by using a thing known as “IT8 target”. IT8 targets are just a photo with a set of color patches. There are known colorimetric measurements for each of these patches. There is also a standard way to specify these measurements, the IT8/CGATS file format. Each IT8 target comes with a IT8/CGATS file that contains the colormetric measurements for that target.
Key Features
- Easy to use graphical interface.
- ICC version 2 compliant.
- Use with software that utilizes the color profile in calibration.
