RenderingIntent is not set, please help.

Post by mmickey »

Hi folks,
I try to set the rendering intent with

Code: Select all

image.renderingIntent(RelativeIntent);
but when I afterwards try to analyse with

Code: Select all

identify -verbose file.jpg
the rendering intent is set to undefined.

Any ideas?

Most metadata associated with a JPEG image is stored as an EXIF profile. ImageMagick only updates a few fields such as the resolution and orientation. Use exiftool to update any additional metadata.

What a pity.

But thanks for your response.

I looked a bit closer to the problem.

The rendering intent metadata doesn't seem to be exif related.
Also identify shows the rendering intent tag when no exif data is in the image at all. exiv2 doesn't allow to set rendering intent, too.
So it seems I have to look at a different place, any ideas?
