METHOD, APPARATUS, AND PROGRAM FOR GENERATING COLOR CONVERSION LOOKUP TABLE

摘要

A color conversion lookup table generation method includes the processes of (i) acquiring a set of parameter values which represents a specific color; (ii) acquiring a plurality of ink value set candidates which corresponds to the set of parameter values, and evaluated values each associated with a result of printing based on a corresponding one of the plurality of ink amount set candidates; (iii) allowing a user to input a preference characteristic of the user; and (iv) applying a color conversion lookup table which converts the set of parameters into a set of ink amounts which is determined on the basis the preference characteristic and the evaluated values.

1. A color conversion lookup table generation method for generating a color conversion lookup table for use in converting a specific color specified in a color space into a set of ink amounts which is a combination of a plurality of ink amounts each associated with a corresponding one of inks usable by a printing apparatus, the color conversion lookup table generation method comprising the processes of:
(i) acquiring a set of parameter values which represents the specific color; (ii) acquiring a plurality of ink value set candidates which corresponds to the set of parameter values, and evaluated values each associated with a result of printing based on a corresponding one of the plurality of ink amount set candidates; (iii) allowing a user to input a preference characteristic of the user; and (iv) applying a color conversion lookup table which converts the set of parameters into a set of ink amounts which is determined on the basis the preference characteristic and the evaluated values.
