Abstract
A sample information input unit obtains spectral reflectances of color patches formed on a medium from a measuring device or storage unit. A media characteristic input unit inputs bi-spectral radiance factors of the medium from the storage unit. A computing unit computes bi-spectral radiance factors of the color patches based on the spectral reflectances of the color patches obtained by the sample information input unit and the bi-spectral radiance factors of the medium input by the media characteristic input unit.
