For example:
collink -ip -cmt -dcx Original_Image_Profile.icm Backlit_Panel.icm
Link_orig-panel.icm
cctiff Link_orig-panel.icm Original.TIF For_Print.TIF
For_Print.TIF is the image to print for baklit panel which is subject of
softprof.
collink -ila -ccx -dmt Backlit_Panel.icm AdobeRGB1998.icm
Link_panel-to_AdobeRGB.icm
cctiff Link_panel-to_AdobeRGB.icm -e AdobeRGB1998.icm For_Print.TIF
Panel_Softprof.TIF
Panel_Softprof.TIF is the image with softprof of the print on baklit panel.
I'm didn't know at the momet, is the -la mapping appropriate for softprof for
certain case because it can not to show possibly weakness of the shadows on the
panel.
