Adobe - Adobe Press Room: For immediate release

What can it do?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Convert an RGB image to individual CMYK layers, using specified source and
  destination Colour Profiles.

* Save such a collection of layers as a CMYK TIFF.

* Proof the CMYK image on the monitor.

* Perform a "duotone" separation on an RGB image, reducing it to just those
  colours achievable with red and black ink.  (This feature does *not* use
  colour-profiles!)

* Load CMYK TIFFs into individual layers.
  If you want to do that, please install "separate_import" plug-in.
  Then you can find the "Separated TIFF" item in the tool box's "File ->
  Acquire" menu.


What can't it do?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Perform the "duotone" trick based on any colour other than red.


Requirements:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* The RGB -> CMYK conversion is performed with the truly excellent LittleCMS
  library (version 1.15 or later), so you'll need that installed.

* LibTIFF is also used, but since The GIMP itself uses it, its unlikely
to be
  missing!

* ICC profiles.
  I recommend that you download Adobe's free colour profiles.


Installation (Linux):
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If the GIMP 2.4.x is installed under /usr directory, type as follows:

$ unzip separate+-0.5.x.zip
$ cd separate+-0.5.x
$ make
$ sudo make install

Or, if the GIMP is installed under other directory(e.g. /opt),
type as follows:

...
$ export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
$ make PREFIX=/opt
$ sudo make PREFIX=/opt install

You can also install the plugin for a single user:

...
$ make INSTALLDIR=~/.gimp-2.4/plug-ins install-plugins

Separate+ serches the following directoreis for the colour profiles. If
you want to use other directories, edit platform.h and recompile the
plug-ins.

  /usr/share/color/icc/
  /usr/color/icc/
  ~/.color/icc/

To install the Adobe ICC profiles, you can get ZIPed profiles at the Adobe
web site:
  http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/iccprofiles/iccprofiles_win.html

Finally, install the provided sRGB profile:

$ cp sRGB/sRGB\ Color\ Space\ Profile.icm /usr/share/color/icc/
 
The default profiles are:
  RGB: sRGB Color Space Profile.icm
  CMYK: USWebCoatedSWOP.icc
