Hi!
I have created icc profiles with colprof and the CC Passport target. The
options used were -v -Zr -qh -aX -u. My understanding was that -u would allow
whites to be mapped outside the lightest patch of the target. But I find that
the target white patch is rendered as 100% white (255 in stead of 244). What am
I missing?
Best regards - Hening
That target doesn't have very many patches, not enough, it seems to me,
for a LUT profile ("-qh -aX").
I wrote up some considerations about what kind of camera input profile
to make for various purposes (critiques are very welcome!):

Maybe try "-am", using the procedure in this article to fix the white
point?
