Color management observations

Post by Winfried »

Version: 8-May-2018

I created a jpg within PWP7 and PWP8
700x700 Pixel, color r=102, g=204, b=102
sRGB-Profil and working space

PWP8-file
PWP_8_RGB_102_204_102_sRGB.jpg
PWP_8_RGB_102_204_102_sRGB.jpg (13.33 KiB) Viewed 1743 times
PWP7-file
PWP_7_RGB_102_204_102_sRGB.jpg
PWP_7_RGB_102_204_102_sRGB.jpg (13.38 KiB) Viewed 1743 times
PWP8- Color management settings
CM-settings.jpg
CM-settings.jpg (159.66 KiB) Viewed 1743 times
Problems:
- If I open the PWP8-generated file in PWP7, PWP7 doesn't see the profile
- If I open the PWP8-generated file in Qimage, Qimage doesn't see the profile
- If I open the PWP8-generated file in Gimp 2.10, Gimp 2.10 doesn't see the profile

- If I open the PWP7-generated file in PWP8, PWP8 doesn't see the profile
- If I open the PWP7-generated file in Qimage, Qimage sees the profile
- If I open the PWP7-generated file in Gimp 2.10, Gimp 2.10 sees the profile

Exiftool shows the profile in both files. But there are differences, I cannot interprete

While profiles are saved as a normal tag in TIFF files, profiles in JPEGs have their own special area in which they are saved, separate from all the other tags. I had forgotten this and WIC apparently has no support for writing this special tag, but I had also forgotten that I had solved this problem many years ago by writing code to insert a profile in the file after writing it, so I should be able to resurrect this old solution and get JPEG profiles working again.
