Re: Converting Common Image files to RGB or TAG Fi
Short Answer: They are both correct.
longer Answer:
Back when one-color monitors were going out of style RGB only referred to the "new" color monitors (Red Green Blue). Around the same time, one of the main drawing softwares of the day developed a new format for color.
Side Note:
The reason its RGB and not RBY. In school you learned that the primary colors were Red Blue Yellow. All colors were some blend of those, and all of them together made black and none made white. They called it the color wheel, but should have said the color wheel for solids (reflected light).
What they didnt teach in my day (and definetly should now) is that the color wheel for direct light is Red Green Blue with all mixed being white and none being black. Its becoming more and more important to know the RGB mixes since thats what is involved in monitors, tv, internet viewing, PC software, lasers, and coming up in holograms
There is also another wheel called subtractive which is CMY (Cyan Magenta Yellow). Very important to inks and printers.
