DESCRIPTION
       TIFF  supports  several color spaces for images stored in that format.
       There is usually a problem of application to handle the data  properly
       and  convert between different colorspaces for displaying and printing
       purposes. To simplify this task libtiff implements several color	 con-
       version routines itself. In particular, these routines used in TIFFRG-
       BAImage(3T) interface.

       TIFFYCbCrToRGBInit() used to initialize YCbCr to RGB conversion state.
       Allocating  and	freeing of the ycbcr structure belongs to programmer.
       TIFFYCbCrToRGB defined in tiffio.h as

	      typedef struct {		      /* YCbCr->RGB support */
		      TIFFRGBValue* clamptab; /* range clamping table */
		      int*	   Cr_r_tab;
		      int*	   Cb_b_tab;
		      int32*	   Cr_g_tab;
		      int32*	   Cb_g_tab;
		      int32*	    Y_tab;
	      } TIFFYCbCrToRGB;

       luma is a float array of three values representing proportions of  the
       red,  green  and	 blue in luminance, Y (see section 21 of the TIFF 6.0
       specification, where the YCbCr images discussed).   TIFFTAG_YCBCRCOEF-
       FICIENTS	 holds	that  values  in TIFF file.  refBlackWhite is a float
       array of 6 values which specifies a  pair  of  headroom	and  footroom
       image  data values (codes) for each image component (see section 20 of
       the TIFF 6.0 specification where the colorinmetry  fields  discussed).
       TIFFTAG_REFERENCEBLACKWHITE is responsible for storing these values in
       TIFF file. Following code snippet should helps to understand  the  the
       technique:

	      float *luma, *refBlackWhite;
	      uint16 hs, vs;

	      /* Initialize structures */
	      ycbcr = (TIFFYCbCrToRGB*)
		   _TIFFmalloc(TIFFroundup(sizeof(TIFFYCbCrToRGB), sizeof(long))
			+ 4*256*sizeof(TIFFRGBValue)
			+ 2*256*sizeof(int)
			+ 3*256*sizeof(int32));
	      if (ycbcr == NULL) {
		      TIFFError("YCbCr->RGB",
			"No space for YCbCr->RGB conversion state");
		      exit(0);
	      }

	      TIFFGetFieldDefaulted(tif, TIFFTAG_YCBCRCOEFFICIENTS, &luma);
	      TIFFGetFieldDefaulted(tif, TIFFTAG_REFERENCEBLACKWHITE, &refBlackWhite);
	      if (TIFFYCbCrToRGBInit(ycbcr, luma, refBlackWhite) < 0)
		   exit(0);

	      /* Start conversion */
	      uint32 r, g, b;
	      uint32 Y;
	      int32 Cb, Cr;

	      for each pixel in image
		   TIFFYCbCrtoRGB(img->ycbcr, Y, Cb, Cr, &r, &g, &b);

	      /* Free state structure */
	      _TIFFfree(ycbcr);



       TIFFCIELabToRGBInit()  initializes  the CIE L*a*b* 1976 to RGB conver-
       sion state.  TIFFCIELabToRGB defined as

	      #define CIELABTORGB_TABLE_RANGE 1500

	      typedef struct {		    /* CIE Lab 1976->RGB support */
		   int	range;		    /* Size of conversion table */
		   float     rstep, gstep, bstep;
		   float     X0, Y0, Z0;	 /* Reference white point */
		   TIFFDisplay display;
		   float     Yr2r[CIELABTORGB_TABLE_RANGE + 1]; /* Conversion of Yr to r */
		   float     Yg2g[CIELABTORGB_TABLE_RANGE + 1]; /* Conversion of Yg to g */
		   float     Yb2b[CIELABTORGB_TABLE_RANGE + 1]; /* Conversion of Yb to b */
	      } TIFFCIELabToRGB;

       display is a display device description, declared as

	      typedef struct {
		   float d_mat[3][3]; /* XYZ -> luminance matrix */
		   float d_YCR;	      /* Light o/p for reference white */
		   float d_YCG;
		   float d_YCB;
		   uint32 d_Vrwr;     /* Pixel values for ref. white */
		   uint32 d_Vrwg;
		   uint32 d_Vrwb;
		   float d_Y0R;	      /* Residual light for black pixel */
		   float d_Y0G;
		   float d_Y0B;
		   float d_gammaR;    /* Gamma values for the three guns */
		   float d_gammaG;
		   float d_gammaB;
	      } TIFFDisplay;

       For example, the one can use sRGB  device,  which  has  the  following
       parameters:

	      TIFFDisplay display_sRGB = {
		   {	   /* XYZ -> luminance matrix */
			{  3.2410F, -1.5374F, -0.4986F },
			{  -0.9692F, 1.8760F, 0.0416F },
			{  0.0556F, -0.2040F, 1.0570F }
		   },
		   100.0F, 100.0F, 100.0F, /* Light o/p for reference white */
		   255, 255, 255,      /* Pixel values for ref. white */
		   1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F,   /* Residual light o/p for black pixel */
		   2.4F, 2.4F, 2.4F,   /* Gamma values for the three guns */
	      };

       refWhite	 is  a	color  temperature  of the reference white. The TIFF-
       TAG_WHITEPOINT contains the chromaticity of the	white  point  of  the
       image from where the reference white can be calculated using following
       formulae:

	      refWhite_Y = 100.0
	      refWhite_X = whitePoint_x / whitePoint_y * refWhite_Y
	      refWhite_Z = (1.0 - whitePoint_x - whitePoint_y) / whitePoint_y
	      * refWhite_X

       The conversion itself performed in two steps: at the first one we will
       convert CIE L*a*b* 1976 to CIE XYZ  using  TIFFCIELabToXYZ()  routine,
       and  at	the second step we will convert CIE XYZ to RGB using TIFFXYZ-
       ToRGB().	 Look at the code sample below:

	      float   *whitePoint;
	      float   refWhite[3];

	      /* Initialize structures */
	      img->cielab = (TIFFCIELabToRGB *)
		   _TIFFmalloc(sizeof(TIFFCIELabToRGB));
	      if (!cielab) {
		   TIFFError("CIE L*a*b*->RGB",
			"No space for CIE L*a*b*->RGB conversion state.");
		   exit(0);
	      }

	      TIFFGetFieldDefaulted(tif, TIFFTAG_WHITEPOINT, &whitePoint);
	      refWhite[1] = 100.0F;
	      refWhite[0] = whitePoint[0] / whitePoint[1] * refWhite[1];
	      refWhite[2] = (1.0F - whitePoint[0] - whitePoint[1])
			 / whitePoint[1] * refWhite[1];
	      if (TIFFCIELabToRGBInit(cielab, &display_sRGB, refWhite) < 0) {
		   TIFFError("CIE L*a*b*->RGB",
			"Failed to initialize CIE L*a*b*->RGB conversion state.");
		   _TIFFfree(cielab);
		   exit(0);
	      }

	      /* Now we can start to convert */
	      uint32 r, g, b;
	      uint32 L;
	      int32 a, b;
	      float X, Y, Z;

	      for each pixel in image
		   TIFFCIELabToXYZ(cielab, L, a, b, &X, &Y, &Z);
		   TIFFXYZToRGB(cielab, X, Y, Z, &r, &g, &b);

	      /* Don’t forget to free the state structure */
	      _TIFFfree(cielab);
