I consider DNG a file format. Is this correct? Not an .icc profile. Please advise.
DNG is a file format, and part of the format specification is for a completely-unrelated-to-ICC color profile called ``DNG color profile'' (or something like that). DNG profiles and ICC profiles vaguely do the same sort of thing, but DNG profiles are intentionally designed to be loose-fitting general-purpose tools for creating ``pleasing'' color in photographs, and ICC profiles are designed for precision.
