Managing color for display, input, and output

You may find that the colors displayed on your monitor don’t match the colors of a scanned image or of a printer’s output. Color management lets you reproduce colors accurately by using color profiles and by correcting colors for display.

Understanding the Color management dialog box

Color management is the process of matching colors between devices, such as scanners, digital cameras, printers, and monitors. Your application features color management controls designed to help you achieve the best possible color matches.

The Color management dialog box, with its default settings, looks like this:

You can activate the following visual elements:

Scanner/digital camera icon

Separations printer icon

Monitor icon

Composite printer icon

Import/export icon

Internal RGB icon

Arrows

You can click the Monitor icon, the Import/export icon, the Internal RGB icon, and the Arrows to choose color management options and advanced settings.

You can click the caption text under the icons to choose color profiles for each device. You can also get other color profiles from the application CD or online. For more information, see “Working with color profiles” on page 161. To help you choose the appropriate profile, check the manufacturer’s documentation for a device.

In addition, you can click the arrows between device icons to turn the color profiles on or off. The arrows appear orange when on, and grayed and broken when off. You can use the arrows to correct colors between devices, and control how colors are displayed.

The following table contains descriptions of what happens when an arrow is on or off.

When a device is corrected for color, at least two profiles are used — one for each device. For example, if the printer colors are being corrected using Internal RGB, both the Internal RGB and printer profiles are used. If you use simulation to display colors on your monitor as they are printed, three profiles are used: the Internal RGB, printer, and monitor profiles.
