Abstract: The colors of a print as a target are easily and reliably equalized with the colors of a proof generated by a proofer. A printed color chart Cpa is colorimetrically measured by a colorimeter, and an original printing profile as a target for converting CMYK image data into colorimetric data is produced. Then, using the original printing profile and a printer profile, a color chart Cpa′ of the proof is outputted from a printer based on the CMYK image data. The color chart Cpa′ is colorimetrically measured to generate a printing color reproduction profile. In the printing color reproduction profile, weighting is set in view of color reproduction ranges of a printing press and the printer, and a corrected printing profile is generated. The corrected printing profile and the printer profile are set as a color converting means. It is possible to perform easily corrected color matching by using the corrected color converting means.

Abstract: This image reproducing method comprises the steps of preparing profiles that are respectively set to correspond to an input device and an output device to be used and are employed for correcting MTF (Modulation Transfer Function) characteristics; processing image data fetched in through the input device by means of the profiles; then subjecting the image data thus processed by the profiles to predetermined image processing; processing the image data thus subjected to the predetermined image processing by means of the profiles again; supplying the image data thus processed again by the profiles to the output device; and outputting the reproduced image on the basis of the image data thus supplied.

Abstract: An adjustment process for converting the dot gain of printing conditions of a given standard printing profile to the dot gain of printing conditions of a printing machine which is going to be used is facilitated. For example, with respect to the color cyan C, the printing profile is divided into a linear four-dimensional LUT for color conversion and a gradation characteristic inherent in the printing profile, i.e., an LUT of dot gain characteristics. The characteristic of an inverse function of the gradation characteristic inherent in the printing profile is set in a LUT for gradation characteristic conversion such that a change in output halftone-dot % of the LUT of the gradation characteristic inherent in the printing profile will be equalized to a change in input halftone-dot % of the LUT. In this manner, the input halftone-dot % and the output halftone-dot % agree with each other, allowing the adjustment process to match the user's sensitivity.
