CMS for digital photography: a case study
Robert Y. Chung, Darunee Sa-areddee · Proceedings of SPIE, the International Society for Optical Engineering/Proceedings of SPIE · 2002
The objectives of the study was to compare image quality from digital photography to RGB-printer under two digital imaging workflows: legacy-based and CMS-based. Due to the difference in judging criteria, the study shows that legacy- based digital imaging workflow can produce pleasing images as good as CMS-based workflow. But ICC-based CMS out performs legacy-based workflow in matching the color appearance of the source images. This is a welcome feature in direct mail catalogs whereby printed images need to match the appearance of the merchandise closely.
