Guys
I've had an off-line discussion with Antonio about this. He hasn't updated me to say how this worked out for him. However I think this is useful background into the possibility of providing an ICC profile action in Phatch. The littlecms library is built and included in the Mac bundle for the jpegtrans utility.
Hi Antonio
I've tried the Synaptic Package Manager on Unbuntu 9.10 and typed jpegicc into the QuickSearch field. It offered "liblcms-utils", so I selected that and it installed jpegicc (painless).
I found some profiles such as "Black & White.icc" on my Mac (in /Library/
jpegicc -o "Black & White.icc" R.jpg mono.jpg
The original 2mb file was untouched and I got a 800k file with a black and white (not gray scale). I tried some others (Gray Tone, Sepia Tone and Blue Tone) and all seemed to work fine. I was rather disappointed that jpegicc removed all exif data from the output jpgs - so I'm a little uncertain about exactly what's been done. Presumably, he processed the image and wrote a minimal jpg in the output. I noticed that mono.jpg was still in the RGB color space - so although he'd converted the pixels, I wasn't convinced that he had really changed the color space in the JPG itself. Anyway - for sure it processed the image.
If you want to run this in a loop over a directory of files, you can use bash or Perl or Python or anything you like really. For example, in bash something like:
#!/bin/bash
mkdir output
for file in `ls *.jpg`; do jpegicc -o "Gray Tone.icc" $file output/$file ; done
will probably win the day (provided you don't have spaces in the file names).
I hope that helps.
Robin

Hi Robin,
Thanks very much for your suggestsions, I would be very greatful for a
walkthrough on how to get little cms to do this until Phatch has this
ability. I'm currently running Ubuntu 9.10 (though will be on 10.04
very soon)
Thanks again,
Antonio

Hi Antonio
I will leave Stani (the Phatch team leader) to reply to your bug report. I have a feeling that this will be marked as "enhancement request" and one day it will receive attention. There is a 'Convert Mode' action - however I suspect you are looking for more than just colorspace change.
I'm working on Phatch and currently building libraries which we need for the 0.2.8 version which will have both a Mac and Windows installer. Yesterday I built the 'little cms' libraries which are used by dcraw (which is used to import raw camera images). http://
I see that little cms has a utility jpegicc which I think does what you want (help screen below). You could run that from a script to 'run over' a directory of photos.
If Phatch can't help you at this time, I'd be happy to help you to get littlecms to do this for you. And that would be good preparation for adding an action to a future version of Phatch. I'm off on vacation on Saturday for a week, so I won't be able to do much until I return.
Thoughts? Which platform are you using? (Mac, Linux or Windows)
