Abstract
A shaping device is provided and includes a head portion that ejects a material of a shaped object, and a controller that controls the operation of the head portion based on ejecting position specifying data indicating a position to eject the material of each color, the ejecting position specifying data being data in which a color is expressed in a predetermined material color space. The controller generates the ejecting position specifying data based on input data in which colors are expressed in a predetermined input color space, and in the process of generating the ejecting position specifying data, performs a color conversion process of converting a color using at least a profile that associates the color in the input color space with the color in the material color space, and a color adjustment parameter which is a parameter used for adjustment performed for color conversion performed using the profile.
