All color setups associated with the selected color database
snapshot are listed.
If you select a specific color setup, that color setup is applied to
a job's files when the files are refined using this process
template. If you select
<Job_ColorSetup>
, the default color
setup specified for the job is used instead.
Assign Input Device Conditions
In this section, you can assign source profiles (device profiles)
to images and graphics to define the input color space for those
objects. Source profiles use an RGB color space, similar to a
scanner, digital camera, or monitor.
Images
refers to raster
image data, and
Graphics
refers to vector data.
You can also use a DeviceLink profile that includes both the
source and the destination ICC profiles. A DeviceLink profile
can be used to replace a source file in Prinergy. DeviceLink
profiles enable you to go from one color space to another
without converting to CIE L*a*b* and produce very good results
with more shadow detail. The most common types of
DeviceLink profiles are RGB to CMYK and CMYK to CMYK.
Both CMYK-to-CMYK and RGB-to-CMYK profiles convert from
one color space to another—for example, from a source color
space to a destination color space. The CMYK-to-CMYK profile
also converts from one color model to another.
The source profile is applied if the
CMYK Images
,
CMYK
Graphics
,
RGB Images
, or
RGB Graphics
check box is selected
and a selected object in the input file does not have an
embedded profile. Each type of object has a check box for
selecting color matching and a box where you can enter the
input ICC profile file information.
Note: An ICC profile is a color space description that acts as a standard
for accurate reproduction of colors across different platforms, devices,
and applications, according to the standards of the International Color
Consortium (ICC). For example, an ICC profile that describes a specific
RGB device, such as a Kodak EasyShare camera, provides a mapping of
the camera's red, green, and blue color space to device-independent
L*a*b* coordinates (or CIELAB color space). ICC profiles are stored on
your home server at
CreoAraxi\data\ICC-Profiles
.
To disable color matching for an object type with no embedded
profile, clear the check box beside that object type.
Note: The default action for RGB images and graphics is to convert them
to CMYK using a standard ICC profile that is shipped with Prinergy. The
default source profile is
Monitor\Adobe RGB 1998.icm
, and the
default destination profile is
US WebCoated SWOP.icm
.
