GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 627594
colour management - unable to save images with sRGB profile
Last modified: 2011-04-03 13:26:31 UTC
An ideal workflow: 1. Raw to JPG conversion in RawTherapee, workspace AdobeRGB 2. Further edits in Gimp, workspace AdobeRGB 3. File saved as JPG with sRGB profile why to save sRGB profile? 1. Eye of Gnome will not apply colour correction, if JPG file does not include a profile 2. Firefox set to apply display profile to only files with ICC profile, will display jpg files without sRGB profile without colour correction. See screenshot - images with a profile (AdobeRGB and sRGB) are displayed correctly, while the other image without profile is displayed incorrectly.
You can manage the embedded profiles through image>mode>convert/assign profile. If your image source was AdobeRGB and your working space is AdobeRGB and you want to embed sRGB you should use "convert". If you want to embedd AdobeRGB you should use "assign". You can use your workflow. Just you have to keep in mind that the profile won't be embedded automatically. You have to do it manually.
