4.9.9 Colour management
From version 4.0 it is possible to use screen colour management, in order to use it in
combination with new Print Server colour management.
What does colour management means?
Colour management, also called colour matching, involves making some image
adjustments in order to obtain, in paper, colour results as close as possible as screen
colours. To make these adjustments you have to enable some print profiles, in combination
with screen ones. These profiles are generated specifically for your devices, because every
device (printer or monitor) obtain different colour outputs.
To understand this, you must know something about colour: screens represent colours
of light, combining the basic three colours of light: Red, Green and Blue. On the other hand,
printers represent pigment colours, combining the basic three pigment colours: Cyan,
Magenta and Yellow. Because the nature of light and pigment colours, you can see some
colours in your screen that your printer is unable to represent, and your printer can represent
colours that you can not see in your screen.
In order to obtain the best correspondence between screen and printing devices it is
used a common Colour Working Space profile. This colour working space is the reference
between both sides (editing on screen, and output printing).
So, colour management will provide you a way to make adjustments in your screen that
will not surprise you on paper and, if you don't make any adjustment, you will get in paper
more realistic colours.
