Abstract
A color image is processed into a renderable image. The color image comprises a plurality of pixels. Each pixel has colorimetry defined in a first color space. The renderable image comprises a plurality of renderable pixels defined by a device-vector in a second color space. For each pixel: a device-vector defined in the second color space is selected () based on the colorimetry defined in a first color space of the pixel. The device-vector comprises a plurality of elements. Each element includes an identifier and an accumulated weighting. An element of the selected device-vector is reselected () until the accumulated weighting (a) is greater than a threshold value (t) associated with the pixel (). The levels for each color of the second color space (or mappings) for the currently selected () element of the selected device-vector is determined () to convert the pixel into a renderable pixel.
