Abstract
A colour quality control device adapted for use in a system for colour correction of an image to be reproduced on at least one reproduction device that is calibrated by a reproduction forward transform. The system also comprises a colour correction device adapted to correct at least one colour in the image. The colour quality control device comprises a false contour detection unit that uses information from the reproduction forward transform to decide if a contour in the image is a false contour introduced by the transform. This facilitates the operator's work during colour correction. A system and a method are also provided.
