ICC profiles support for images

[13xforever]

Right now pdf.js ignores embedded color profiles of any kind.

Here's a test pdf that looks just fine with Windows Reader on Windows 8, but shows no support in PDF.js.

And yes, Firefox does work (same test, but as html: http://www.color.org/version4html.xalter)

firefox 21.0a2 (2013-02-28)
pdf.js version 0.7.256

The HTML site shows version 2 support only in here (windows 7 x64, firefox aurora), is this something new to windows 8?

SumatraPDF doesn't support those profiles either, so I wonder how important the support really is?

ICCv4 is disabled by default in Firefox, you have to flip gfx.color_management.enablev4 to True

I don't know how important it is, but I couldn't find any relevant bug, so I made a new one with links to test cases.

Yeah it's okay, better to have a tracking bug. Worst case the devs would close as "won't fix", best case it gives some dev or contributor something to do ;P

I don't know if it works, but if it can help someone to implement ICC profiles, I found this:
https://formats.kaitai.io/icc_4/javascript.html
It seems to be CC0 license, it may be a start to begin ICC profiles support.

Frankly it's a bit ridiculous that Firefox's PDF viewer (PDF.js) still lacks support for both v2 and v4 profiles in the year 2020. 😠 👎

Seems that even Chrome doesn't support v4 profile.
