COLOR MANAGEMENT SYSTEM USING MEASURED DEVICE DATA

Managing color data to transform source color image data from a source device into destination color image data for rendering by a destination device, including accessing a source color data file corresponding to the source device, the source color data file containing source device color characteristic data, constructing a source color transform based on the source device color characteristic data contained in the source color data file, and applying the source color transform to the source color image data to transform the source color image data from a source device color space into interim color image data in an interim color space.
