Image Color Management (ICM) is performed to ensure that the image has a very similar appearance, regardless of the device on which it is displayed or printed. When displaying an image, the image must be converted to the device-specific color space of the specified monitor. This conversion can be done at a number of different points in the process:
- Prior to loading the image into ImagXpress®
- By ImagXpress
- By the display device
To perform color management within ImagXpress:
1. Ensure that ImageXView.IcmEnabled is set to True.
2. Specify how to apply profiles, by setting the ImageXView.ColorRenderIntent property (for example, Picture, Graphics, Business or Colorimetric interpretation.)
3. Specify the color profile to be used when performing ICM on an image to be displayed (ImageXView.MonitorProfileName property).
 |
Setting MonitorProfileName doesn't change the profile name stored with the monitor device context - it simply specifies the color profile ImagXpress uses when performing Image Color Management. |
4. Color management will be applied when the image paints.
