The pre and post linearistation curves (or tables as called
in the spec)
for the B2A and A2B tags can contain up to 4096 segments for
mft2
(10.8) CLUT's. And for the embedded cuves (10.5) used by the
v4
lutAtoBType, I found no limitation other than the type of a
uInt32Number
for its segment number.
The more segments the finer of a control is possible.
As well, these curves can contain asymetric numbers of
segments for in/out
or B/M/A elements.
