[SOLVED]Windows script driving IM: basic arithmetic on param

Bart van der Wolf, with some assistance from Fred Weinhaus, Alan Gibson and myself, has been polishing a Windows script that combines several ImageMagick commands to produce excellent quality when resizing. (Right now, it only works "perfectly" with sRGB input and output, but this may be e...

Re: convert from Adobe RGB to some kind of linear RGB (and b

Fred: This is what's going on: Indeed, one could do a resize in sRGB then convert to linear RGB, convert to linear RGB then resize, compute the luminance from the latter, blend the two results, and convert the blend back to sRGB. What I showed was actually exactly the same replacing sRGB by Adobe RG...

Re: convert from Adobe RGB to some kind of linear RGB (and b

If I understand correctly how profiles etc are handled with IM, and assuming input_small.tif is Adobe RGB 8 bit (if already 16 bit, I imagine the first parentheses can be skipped) this would be the one in which linear is blended with a gamma version which here is neither 2 nor 3. This is different t...

Re: convert from Adobe RGB to some kind of linear RGB (and b

Fred: When I have a minute, I'll post a simplified version that exploits the fact that we may as well use gamma 2.19921875 intead of gamma 2 or 3.
(It's already tomorrow where I live.)

Re: convert from Adobe RGB to some kind of linear RGB (and b

Alan: I'm totally fine with "different RGB colorspaces". Actually, I'd be fine with other primaries than RGB. So this works for >>me<<. But indeed, without the "Longer answer", people may think that they are getting the same linear RGB as doing -set colorspace sRGB -colorspace RG...

Re: convert from Adobe RGB to some kind of linear RGB (and b

So, to go from Adobe RGB to linear RGB with Adobe RGB primaries

Code: Select all

... -gamma .4547069271758437 ...
(with possibly a -set colorspace RGB or two to avoid confusion) and to go back to Adobe RGB

Code: Select all

... -gamma 2.19921875 ...

convert from Adobe RGB to some kind of linear RGB (and back)

How can this be done? Looked at http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/formats/#color_profile and am not 100% sure I got the full picture. If the profile is embedded in InputImage, is convert InputImage -profile (stuff I want to do in linear RGB) OutputImage enough? I don't particulary care which linear R...

Re: Improving sigmoidal image resampling (enlargement)

Preliminary findings I am pretty sure that sigmoidization is dead as a general purpose resampling method. The simple version of what works better is to use mapping through a gamma space (with a matching pair of -gamma commands, like -gamma 3 -distort Resize 800% -gamma .33333333333333 ) to reduce t...

Re: Windows/Linux/OSX ImageMagick GUI

Will it try to load and save as 32-bit float tiff? Whatever it loads (unless a depth command is issued?) will generally be stored, internally, in a floating point format. If this is not acceptable, stick to the standard Q16 version. There may be ways of controlling this behavior, but I don't have t...
