Thank you for your reply!

I also would like to use this profile in particular for the red tones which are very important for rendering some inks of the manuscripts.

For assigning the profile I will probably use Capture One for the conversion.

At the moment I am trying to implement the workflow using Python programming language and especially the conversion from eciRGB_v2 to XYZ and then to Lab. This because, after the acquisition and the production of the master, I will perform also a quality assurance step using in scene reference targets for computing CIE deltaE.

With Adobe 1998 was easy given the following document https://www.adobe.com/digitalimag/pdfs/AdobeRGB1998.pdf

I can't find a document like this for eciRGB_v2 online and this is a crucial factor for me.

Caro Giacomo,

I would adopt eciRGB_v2. Are you converting in Photoshop?

Subject: [ECI-EN] eciRGB_v2 space color for digitization of ancient manuscripts

Hello,

I am a technologist at the University of Verona, I am implementing a workflow for digitizing the rare book collection of the Capitolare library in Verona. I am deciding which color space to use for the master files of the digitized manuscripts. I am trying to decide between Adobe 1998 and eciRGB_v2.

I would like to use eciRGB_v2 but I can't find the specification of eciRGB_v2 on ECI website, in particular how to convert RGB to normalized XYZ values, while the specification of Adobe 1998 is available online and seems more documented regarding these aspects.

I would like to ask you if eciRGB_v2 specifications are available for free? And if there are any documents or guideline for the adoption of the eciRGB_v2 in artwork digitalization projects?

Thanks a lot!

Best regards,

Giacomo Marchioro
