Abstract: In order to implement color matching with higher precision, a device that handles object colors and a device that handles light-source colors must be separately processed. Hence, when the device type is a device that handles light-source colors, control is made so as not to perform processing (forward color appearance model conversion and inverse color appearance model conversion) for converting calorimetric conditions of a calorimetric value file into viewing conditions. When the device type is a device that handles object colors, the processing for converting the calorimetric conditions of the calorimetric value file into the viewing conditions is performed, and a profile is created from the calorimetric values.
Abstract: An image-forming device comprises: a notification unit to notify another device of an event generated in the image-forming device; a registration unit to register a notification destination of the notification unit; a first determination unit to determine, in a case where a request for registering a notification destination is received from a first information-processing device, validity duration of the registration based on the request; and a second determination unit to determine, in a case where a request for registering a notification destination is received from a second information-processing device, validity duration of the registration based on the request, on the basis of the validity duration determined by the first determination unit.
Abstract: The invention provides service search technology that is more user-friendly and that places less of a burden on the network. To accomplish this, services on a network are searched and the search results that are obtained are used to create a service list, which is saved (S701 through S703). The saved service list is read and displayed (S712). A user inputs an operation to indicate a service to be received (S704 through S706). The services that are included in the service list are changed according to this input operation (S709 through S711).
Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a display unit configured to display a plurality of objects, a first movement unit configured to move one or more of the plurality of objects to one or more movement destination areas on the display unit in response to a user's operation, a determination unit configured to determine an extractive selection condition from incidental information of the object moved by the first movement unit, an extractive selection unit configured to select one or more from among the plurality of objects based on the extractive selection condition determined by the determination unit, and a second movement unit configured to move, to the movement destination area, one or more objects selected by the extractive selection unit.
Abstract: An ICC profile includes brief gloss information indicating glossy/matte attribute as attribute information, however, gloss matching cannot be performed with the 2 options. In a case where embedding of glossiness information into the ICC profile is designated, glossiness information is obtained from a color chart placed on an original plate of a color copier, and the obtained glossiness information is described in a private tag of the ICC profile.
Abstract: When one viewing condition parameter is applied to all pixels, a visual effect between a single color and a background expressed on a rasterized image cannot be reflected on a color matching result. To prevent this, when color matching using a human color appearance model is to be performed, the distance between an image and a viewer and the resolution of the image are input. On the basis of the input distance and resolution, a stimulus region, adjacent region, and background region based on a plurality of field angles (e.g., 2°, 4°, and 10°) for a pixel of interest on the image are defined, thereby determining a viewing condition parameter and performing color matching.
