Introduction
|
|
|
|
ArgyllCMS is an ICC compatible color management system, available
|
|
as Open Source. It supports accurate ICC profile creation for scanners,
|
|
cameras and film recorders, and calibration and profiling of displays
|
|
and RGB, CMY & CMYK printers. Device Link can be created with a wide variety
|
|
of advanced options, including specialized Video calibration standards
|
|
and 3dLuts. Spectral sample data is supported, allowing a selection of
|
|
illuminants observer types, and paper fluorescent whitener additive
|
|
compensation. Profiles can also incorporate source specific gamut
|
|
mappings for perceptual and saturation intents. Gamut mapping and
|
|
profile linking uses the CIECAM02 appearance model, a unique gamut
|
|
mapping algorithm, and a wide selection of rendering intents. It also
|
|
includes code for the fastest portable 8 bit raster color conversion
|
|
engine available anywhere, as well as support for fast, fully accurate
|
|
16 bit conversion. Device color gamuts can also be viewed and compared
|
|
with a modern Web browser using X3DOM . Comprehensive documentation is
|
|
provided for each major tool, and a general guide to using the tools for
|
|
typical color management tasks is also available. A mailing list provides
|
|
support for more advanced usage.
|
|
|
|
