Hi,
I am trying to create a custom LCD profile to reduce saturation of the screen,
it's not clear to me how you think this will work, or why this is the mechanism
you are exploring.
I do not have any color calibrating equipment, instead, i can create files
with lists of
fake color measurements.
Can someone please advice on steps required to do so ? knowing that I can
create scripts
to output any required fake data, and i have scripts that can also convert
between color
spaces, for example, i can take input in RGB, reduce color saturation, then
output to XYZ
/ LAB / LSV / ..etc.
In theory, simply take an existing profile (say sRGB), create a set of RGB test
points
and use fakeread to create corresponding PCS values. Increase the saturation of
the
PCS values, then make a new profile.
I am not worried about accurate color output, only want to reduce saturation
(will only be
used for office environment, like spreadsheets..etc)
There are lots of other approaches that would seem easier, such as choosing
the colors you want in the applications themselves, or adjusting the
display to be less saturated. Can you explain why you want to change ICC
profiles instead ?
