The method in the present invention of generating a color profile for converting color values in a device-independent first color space to color values in a device-dependent second color space for the purpose of color adjustment of an output device comprises the steps of executing the mapping of the extra-gamut color value located outside the gamut of the output device among the color values in the first color space (S206), calculating a color difference (ΔE) between the extra-gamut color value before and after the mapping in S206 (S208), calculating a correction amount (Δh) for correcting the extra-gamut color value before the mapping in S206, based on the color difference (ΔE) calculated in S208 and the extra-gamut color value before the mapping in S206 (S210), executing the re-mapping of the extra-gamut color value after the correction by the correction amount (Δh) calculated in S210 (repeated S206), and generating a color profile for converting the extra-gamut color value before the mapping in S206 to the color value in the second color space corresponding to the extra-gamut color value after the mapping in the repeated S206 (S212).
