The fact is all your devices – scanners, digital cameras, monitors, and printers – reproduce colours differently. Many variables affect colour, including your ink and paper type. Time to take control!
Color Management – is a way to set up your environment (called a workflow) to allow all these devices to speak the same language so you can get accurate and predictable results. The goal is to match the colours of the image displayed on your monitor with the ones produced by your printer. A profile describes each device’s colour gamut – the range of reproducible colours. You use these profiles in your workflow, and the result is an accurate translation from one device to the next, giving you consistent, predictable colour.
