DPP supports the following five kinds of color space.sRGB : Standard color space for Windows. Widely used forthe standard color space of monitors, digitalcameras, and scanners.Adobe RGB : A wider color space than sRGB. Mainly used forprinting for business purposes.Apple RGB : Standard color space for Macintosh. A slightlywider color space than sRGB.ColorMatch RGB : A slightly wider color space than sRGB. Mainlyused for printing for business purposes.Wide Gamut RGB : A wider color space than Adobe RGB.Refer to the color chart below for the color area of each color space.Color chart of color spaces compatible with DPPColor range that can beseen by the human eyeGammavalueWhite point(color temp.)sRGB 2.2 6500K(D65)Adobe RGB 2.2 6500K(D65)Apple RGB 1.8 6500K(D65)ColorMatch RGB 1.8 5000K(D50)Wide Gamut RGB 2.2 5000K(D50)CMYK simulation profilesA profile that simulates colors when printing in a CMYK environment(printing machine, etc.). With DPP, you can simulate color with fourtypes of profile.Euro Standard : Profile normally used for book printing inEurope, suitable for simulation of standardEuropean printing.JMPA : Profile normally used for book printing, etc. inJapan, suitable for simulation of magazineadvertising standard color printing.U.S.Web Coated : Profile normally used for book printing inNorth America, suitable for simulation ofNorth American standard printing.JapanColor2001 type3 : Profile becoming a standard in the Japaneseprinting industry, suitable for simulation ofJapanColor standard printing.Rendering intentRendering intents are color conversion methods when printing an image.The conversion method of each rendering intent is shown below.Perceptual : Before and after conversion, all colors areconverted to maintain the relationship betweencolors. Even where colors slightly change, youcan print a natural-looking image which hasmaintained color harmony. However,depending on the image, the saturation maychange overall.Relative Colorimetric : There will not be much conversion to colorswhich are similar before and after conversion,but colors which are not similar are convertedappropriately. Because there are little changesto similar colors which comprise most of animage, you can print a natural-looking image inwhich the saturation has not changed greatly.However, depending on the image, there arecases where the overall tone of an imagechanges somewhat as colors which are notsimilar and highlights change.
