Abstract
A method for reproducing an image on an imaging device, including measuring a set of spectral data for each of a plurality of colors from a set of color device values with a spectral measurement device; determining a first set of tristimulus values corresponding to each set of spectral data; defining a set of human observer color matching functions for each set of tristimulus values; determining a second set of tristimulus values for each set of spectral data using the human observer color matching functions; creating a first map from device-dependent coordinates to device-independent color coordinates; creating a second map from device-independent coordinates to device-dependent color coordinates based on the first map; obtaining image data comprising device-independent color coordinates; converting the image data coordinates into device color coordinates; and reproducing the image on the color device using the device color coordinates.
