1-2 Fiery Color Management
Fiery color management generates CMYK data to be sent to the copier/printer.
The following diagram illustrates the print options in the Fiery color management
process that affect color data conversions. You access these print options when you
send a print job to the Fiery. Most of these options and settings are described in
subsequent sections of this chapter.

RGB Source Profile is the only color option that applies strictly to RGB color data.
The other options that affect RGB color also affect the more rarely used Lab, XYZ,
and other calibrated color spaces.

CIEBasedABC color spaces (if the source space is RGB). If you send CMYK data
to the Fiery in CIEBasedDEFG format, for example, by choosing PostScript Color
Management in Adobe Photoshop, the Fiery Rendering Style selection—which
normally affects only RGB data—will also affect this CMYK data.
