Link file generating program product, method and apparatus for generating link file used for color matching system

摘要

In order to suppress undesired influence of interpolation at the time of color-converting image data, a link file generating program makes a computer execute the steps of coupling a monitor profile and a printer profile to generate a link file linking display-dependent colors (RGB data) to printer-dependent colors (CMYK data), and correcting the link file to adapt a printer-dependent color related to a prescribed one of the display-dependent colors to said prescribed one. Using a display-dependent color as a reference, a printer-dependent color related to the reference color is corrected. Accordingly, a link file can be generated that suppresses the undesired influence of interpolation at the time of color-converting the image data.
