KCMS Overview
Some Background Information
Everyone perceives colors differently. Even the same person’s
perception can be affected by different lighting conditions. Different
devices (input, display, and output) also interpret and define color
differently and simply can’t create the same gamut (or “range”) of
colors.
The goal of color management, then, is to help you get accurate,
predictable color across all devices by managing, compensating for,
and controlling these differences.
The Idea Behind Color Management
Each type of device reads, displays, or interprets color in a unique
way. This unique interpretation is called a “device dependent color
space.” And while there are groups of color spaces, such as RGB or
CMYK each device is still unique within its group. For example,
monitors display color in RGB, yet each monitor displays a unique
version.
The CMS automatically translates between each device dependent
color space—so the color data is accurate and understandable.
This chart shows the central role of the CMS in managing device
dependent color spaces.
