Abstract
An electronic image in a first color space, used by image acquisition devices, is obtained and converted into a second color space with a larger gamut, to produce a second color space image. Corrections are made to the second color space image to produce a corrected image, without performing background suppression. The corrected image is converted into a third color space, used by printing devices, to produce a third color space image, and this process of converting the corrected image into the third color space includes performing background suppression. This process of converting the corrected image into the third color space samples nodes of the second color space values, classifies the nodes as background nodes or non-background nodes, multiplies the second color space values of the background nodes by a percentage less than 100%, and after multiplying, interpolates values between the nodes.
