Effects of Rendering Intents in Color Management

by Anthony Stanton, CMU and Mark Bohan, PIA/GATF

Focus is to compare the color renderings associated with the applications of different rendering intents in a color managed workflow.

4 vendors / 4 rend intents +1 with no color mgmt / 5 samples

Suggest the use of DeltaE2000 as a better, more accurate metric. The older DeltaEab overestimates color differences, and depends on hue, saturation and color levels (non uniform in CIELAB color space).

The study was mostly descriptive.
