Abstract
A system and method for converting an image to a constrained color palette representation receives a specified color or hue from which an image is to be defined. A conversion is then made from an input color space to a CIELAB representation. Data is converted in CIELAB space, in accordance with a specified hue, to a color space set by the specified color. Once converted, data is converted to a color space corresponding to that of an associated document rendering device.
