Paramount Views On Color
As a result, graphic arts customers have come to expect more, but must accept less from color management systems—less color accuracy, slower performance, more simplicity and the inability to get the right color on their devices.
What's needed—and what Imation has implemented with the technology in its Rainbow Spectral Profiler software—is a new definition of the architecture for profiling and processing color. The new definition must base profiles on the full range of spectral data available. Our next step, available soon, is to implement this technology in an industry standard format appropriate for any output device. Moreover, we must have accurate color matching methods (CMMs) to reliably transform any image from RGB to CMYK and back again, or between custom color sets. Again Imation has developed this technology, and will supply this in conjunction with its ICC-based spectral profiling product.
