Hi,

You can't using collink. Normally you wouldn't want/need to,
because the device profile itself has this functionality,
so there is nothing to do.

The one scenario where you might want to do this is if you're using tiffgamut to compute a given image's gamut with a view to making a devicelink specifically for that image, and that image happens to be in CIELab space.

That, I think, is the scenario Nikolay had in mind.

So it's not currently possible without converting the image to a supported colourspace first?

All the best
