Well, that's more or less my question in what colorspace are the RGB values in a ti2 file? sRGB? Basically I'd like to be able to add these patches to a printer target: http://www.oyranos.org/wiki/images/a/aa/ColorChecker_vendor_D50_2deg.cie This file has XYZ/LAB data, but not RGB, which printtarg seems to need, since setting the RGB to 0-0-0 produces black patches.
