Specify global color profiles to implicitly use with all color conversion operations.
This sample shows how to implicitly use ImageGear's re-distributed ICM color profiles to convert the color space in a JPEG image from RGB to CMYK. Color profiles contain complex mappings that make it possible to carefully manage the translations of colors between different color spaces and gamuts to improve conversions to different color spaces.

For a list of the system and development software necessary to build and run these samples, please refer to the ImageGear .NET Online Documentation.
Starting with ImageGear v26.0, ImageGear supports .NET Core.
All samples can be built using Microsoft Visual Studio 2022.
To build this sample:
- Open the .sln file in the project directory using Visual Studio 2022.
- Select a Solution Configuration (Debug or Release) and an available Solution Platform (x64 or Any CPU).
- Build with Build Solution located in the Build menu.
To build this sample under Linux:
- Install the Microsoft .NET SDK for your Linux distribution.
- Run
dotnet build SpecifyColorProfilesGlobally.sln. By default this will build the Debug Solution Configuration.
When the sample is built, it produces a console application executable in the bin subdirectory. Run this application by double-clicking the application icon, or run it directly from Command Prompt (cmd.exe), PowerShell, or similar. Note that the working directory must be the same as the directory containing the sample executable in order to find the sample input image and the output directory. The input image(s) and output directory are specified relative to the location of the application in all of these samples.
To run this sample under Linux, run the sample from "bin/Debug/net6.0/" (depending on the solution platform) using ./SpecifyColorProfilesGlobally.
NOTE: ImageGear .NET runs in evaluation mode if started without a license. In evaluation mode, documents and images will be watermarked when exported or displayed. If you would like to work with a full-featured evaluation of the product, please contact Accusoft at [email protected].
