Rendering Intents Typology
While looking over the new czech translations for CinePaint and ICC Examin
from Milan Knizek, I stumbled over "fotometricky" inside all intents.
Looking at
the origins I found to have written photometric and colourimetric into the
sources. Thats clearly ambiguous. But why did I come up with photometric
at all?
Graeme Gill points out
that a ICC style Rendering intent is a couple of dedication or usage of image
content
and gamut mapping. I am in doubt that this coupling will remain as is. And
frankly Graeme has its part in my mindset regarding smart CMMs. Still no
solution for my intent naming. Should I call the first ICC rendering intent
as officially called "perceptual" and wait until the paradigm changes?
Or call it "photographic" or "pleasing"?
It seems best to switch back to the ICC standard until a proper convention can
be agreed to.
Probably the confusion comes from german "fotografisch" translated
"photographical", which appears in the sources as well.
