The Argyll color management system supports accurate ICC profile creation for
acquisition devices, CMYK printers, film recorders and calibration and profiling
of displays.
Spectral sample data is supported, allowing a selection of illuminants observer
types, and paper fluorescent whitener additive compensation. Profiles can also
incorporate source specific gamut mappings for perceptual and saturation
intents. Gamut mapping and profile linking uses the CIECAM02 appearance model,
a unique gamut mapping algorithm, and a wide selection of rendering intents. It
also includes code for the fastest portable 8 bit raster color conversion
engine available anywhere, as well as support for fast, fully accurate 16 bit
conversion. Device color gamuts can also be viewed and compared using a VRML
viewer.
