Read CxF files from strings or files
Access and manipulate color data in various formats (RGB, CIELab, spectral)
Create CxF objects programmatically
Write CxF objects to XML strings

<cc:CxF xmlns:cc="http://colorexchangeformat.com/CxF3-core" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<cc:FileInformation>
<cc:Creator>Colour Developers</cc:Creator>
<cc:Description>Simple CxF Example</cc:Description>
</cc:FileInformation>
</cc:CxF>"""
# Parse the XML string
cxf = colour_cxf.read_cxf(xml_string.encode("utf-8"))
# Access file information
print(f"Creator: {cxf.file_information.creator}")
print(f"Description: {cxf.file_information.description}")Documentation
