Color Management: A Necessity for Reproduction of Digital Color Images

The most important challenges in color technology with that researchers and industries are faced, is description, consistency and control of color appearance while is supposed to be transferred between different reproduction devices. In this article, the concept of color management for color reproduction of digital images as a suggested solution has been reviewed in brief to achieve a color consistency of an image during workflow from the design step to the publishing step. Color management system makes it possible to keep the color appearance of image consistent between different devices. This is possible if dependent-device color values could be converted to independent-device ones through an intermediate color space. Moreover, the image color management workflow, the conventional methods and the related standards with that have been pointed, too.
