A method and apparatus for color conversion useful for color devices having a large number of input channels, for example CMYK color printers having additional inks used to enhance the color printer's gamut. The color conversion is performed using a strata collection of look-up tables that stratify an n-dimensional color space into sets of lower dimensional subspaces. For lower dimension subspaces, the associated look-up tables may be closed, while for a higher dimension subspace, an associated look-up table may be open, leaving gaps in the subspace not enclosed by a look-up table. A color management module using the strata collection for color conversion may determine if a color conversion is for a color value that falls within a gap. If so, the color management module may use a relatively complex interpolation process. If not, the color management module may use a relatively simple interpolation process. |
