I'm pretty sure you can create a simple Photoshop action for this

First, I bought ICC Scan several years ago so a lot may have changed
since then; but it wasn't free at that time.
Second, you need a different IT8 target for each film type (or more

profile. The original poster was asking about

I'm a little dismayed that Nikon and others are inventing their own
proprietary color
management systems. Kind of defeats the original purpose of the ICC, as I

I believe that "ICM" does refer to the the color management module that the
operating system uses for its system level color management, which in the

ICC stands for Internation Color Consortium, ICM doesn't stand for

Hi Ed--
I scan Kodachrome with a Nikon 4000, and am running NIkonScan 3.x on
MacOS X, so my experiences may or not help you, but here goes:
(1) I found that I get greater dynamic range and more accurate color
by scanning with Nikon color management turned off, generating a raw
