[Gdal-dev] GTiff / gdal_translate / CMYK - problem

I'm no expert on color conversions, but I am reading it as 1 = 100%. So, if
you have an RGB image with values ranging from 0 - 255, then convert it to a
percent first then subtract it from R.
For example, if you have RGB values of 200, 100, 255:
r = 200/255 = .7843
g = 100/255 = .3921
b = 255/255 = 1.0
Then CMY = (1-.7843, 1-.3921, 1-1.0) or (C=0.2157, M=0.6079, Y=0.0)

Hi Even,
Thanks for the info, but I need it other way round - RGB to CMYK conversion.
As Frank said, it's possible to create a CMYK result using gdal_translate
giving it an extra band as a parameter (i.e. -b 1 -b 2 -b 3 -b 1), but the
end result is of no use since that extra band (along with R, G and B) takes
some color mangling I'm not very familiar with. And there's not much to read
about it, here's what I found (citations ahead):
http://semmix.pl/color/extrans/etr10.htm
Transformation RGB, CMY, CMYK
Formal transformation of the components RGB into the components CMY or
inversely is as follows:
we have color RGB=(r,g,b) then color CMY=(1-r,1-g,1-b) we have color
CMY=(c,m,y) then color RGB=(1-c,1-m,1-y).
Transformation of CMY into CMYK is presented as algorithm:
k=min(c,m,y), CMYK=(c-k,m-k,y-k,k)
This explanation seems sane enough, but then: "we have color RGB=(r,g,b)
then color CMY=(1-r,1-g,1-b)" is giving me a headache with "1-r" etc. part.
What do they mean by "1-r"? :-)
Furthermore, RGB to CMYK is supported by .NET 3.5 only, and giving it a shot
via GDAL managed wrappers is also viable solution (thanks Tamas for
LoadBitmapDirect and SaveBitmapDirect C# examples). I'm working with .NET
2.0 and can't use this approach, but here's the code anyways (author
unknown):
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Windows.Media;
using System.Windows.Media.Imaging;
...
Stream imageStream = new FileStream(@"C:\temp\mike4.jpg", FileMode.Open,
FileAccess.Read, FileShare.Read);
BitmapSource myBitmapSource = BitmapFrame.Create(imageStream);
FormatConvertedBitmap newFormatedBitmapSource = new FormatConvertedBitmap();
newFormatedBitmapSource.BeginInit();
newFormatedBitmapSource.Source = myBitmapSource;
newFormatedBitmapSource.DestinationFormat = PixelFormats.Cmyk32;
newFormatedBitmapSource.EndInit();
BitmapEncoder encoder = new TiffBitmapEncoder();
encoder.Frames.Add(BitmapFrame.Create(newFormatedBitmapSource));
Stream cmykStream = new FileStream(@"C:\temp\mike4_CMYK.tif",
FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write, FileShare.Write);
encoder.Save(cmykStream);
cmykStream.Close();
Again, it would be great if someone could explain how to do it via GDAL
wrappers running on .NET 2.0 (I'm using GDAL build from FWTools).
Regards,
Maksim Sestic

Maksim,
I've just done a few changes in the GeoTIFF driver to enable basic CMYK
support.
See the log message of http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/changeset/15178.
And for examples : http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/changeset/15179.
Regards,
Even
