NAME
       dcod2lum - Convert hardcopy characteristic curve file to softcopy format


SYNOPSIS
       dcod2lum in-file out-file


DESCRIPTION
       Command  line  program  that  converts  a hardcopy characteristic curve file to softcopy format. In other
       words, the measured optical density (OD) values from the input file  are  transformed  to  the  luminance
       space according to the formula:

         L = La + L0 * 10^(-D)

       where  L  is  the  resulting  luminance,  La is the reflected ambient light and L0 the illumination (both
       measured in cd/m^2), 'D' the optical density (OD). Please note that if no illumination value is specified
       in the input file (keyword lum) all optical density values are mapped to a constant luminance.


PARAMETERS
       in-file   hardcopy characteristic curve file to be converted

       out-file  softcopy characteristic curve file to be written


NOTES
       The  format  of  both  input  and output file is described the documentation of the dcmdspfn command line
       tool. In addition, the data folder contains sample characteristics file monitors, cameras,  printers  and
       scanners.


FILES
       <datadir>/camera.lut - sample characteristics file of a camera
       <datadir>/monitor.lut - sample characteristics file of a monitor
       <datadir>/printer.lut - sample characteristics file of a printer
       <datadir>/scanner.lut - sample characteristics file of a scanner
