Color Shift
This option allows you to shift the output color
from blue (coolest) to red (warmest), as illustrated
in Figure 23.
If you select a shift toward red (a warm color), the
red colors shift towards the yellow hue, the green
colors towards the cyan hue, and the blue colors
towards the magenta hue. The lower bar shifts
toward the right. All colors in between these
original colors also shift in the same direction.
If you select a shift toward blue (a cool color), the
red colors shift towards the magenta hue, the blue
colors toward the cyan hue, and the green colors
toward the yellow hue. The lower bar shifts toward
the left. Again, all colors in between these original
document colors also shift in the same direction.
Saturation
This option allows you to adjust the overall
richness of color on the output copy. Colors with
high saturation are sometimes called vivid colors,
while those with low saturation are sometimes
called pastel colors.
Use the flower illustrations on the Saturation
screen (Figure 24) to anticipate the results of the
shift. The left flower illustrates the most pastel
setting of saturation. The right flower illustrates the
richest or most vivid saturation. The center flower
represents the factory default Normal saturation.
Selections do not cause any changes to the flower
illustrations.
