I run Win7 (64-bit), GIMP 2.8 (not sure if 32/64-bit).

Installed "separate+-0.5.8+lcms2_win32_bin.zip" (as in unzip, copy 3 exe's to plug-in dir - so easy; to find plug-in dir: Edit - Preferences, Folder - Plug-ins).

Then I got "libtiff3.dll missing when using Separate+ plug-in for GIMP 2.8". To resolve, search for "libtiff3.dll separate+", click the seth.killey.me link, download the dll and put in "GIMP 2\bin" (notice the libtiff-3.dll?).

Thanks to the writers of Separate+ and Little CMS! Thanks to Seth Killey!

Yeah, everything would be great if only I could know how to install this thing! Do you expect me to copy each file manually? Have you heard about self-installing packages? And obviously, the readme file is a big unreadble wall of text. Do you really think this is a definition of "user friendly"? For god's sake, make it easier!

Quote . Do you really think this is a definition of "user friendly"?

who defined the plugin "user friendly" ? i never saw such claim for this plugin
In this case is the turn for the users to be friendly reading the README file before complain

You complain that there is too much to read in the readme but that means that is detailed , and so more chances to find there the information you need

And about self extracting packages, your request is sort of funny :
You didn't even say what Linux distro or Mac or Windows version you use , but you pretend a self-extracting package for it

Mr. Yamakawa, the creator of one of the greatest plugins for GIMP, must feel really ashamed for making you suffer, Your Majesty!
What planet are you from? If you can't even take the pains of reading installation instructions in the readme file, how in the world are you going to successfully use it? It involves understanding of certain things, hence, even more reading. And finally, do you think that your demands made in inappropriate manner is a definition of "gratitude" to people who spend countless (unpaid) hours of their free time developing FREE software at your service? O tempora, o mores!

Beta 0.5.8 works fine in Gentoo Linux.
Installation using make and make install was easy.
Thanks yam.

This either doesn't work in Linux, or doesn't work at all, or really needs instructions:

Using Gimp 2.6 in Ubuntu 10.04 LTS & the matching Separate+ from the Ubuntu repos.

Adobe's ICC files are not recognized after installing to both the recommended locations (local & system).

Without installing the ICC files, the plugin goes through the motions & creates 4 layers CMY might be valid, but the black layer is nothing but a black square in the upper lefthand corner.

I haven't been able to get this to work, it just says the application failed to load on all three plugins. I am using the 64 bit unstable windows release, however every other plugin seems to work just fine, just not this one.

Win32 binaries of the GIMP plug-ins cannot work with the GIMP Win64 binary.
A lot of 3rd-party plug-ins are provided as Win32 binaries.

I have tried to download the file from http://cue.yellowmagic.info/softwares/separate-plus/index.html but it doesn't work. Does anyone has another link perhaps to a ftp?
