Abstract: The present invention provides for the creation and use of a non-linearized, paper specific, digital workflow independent color profile which can be used to create proofs based on the raw output data of the source process. Such a profile would have the advantage of not having to have account for the intermediate workflow steps such as linearization, color correction, sharpening, ink limiting, color separation, dithering or color transformation because the gamut mapping would utilize the discrete output tones of the resulting data sent to the source device.

Abstract: A system and method of scanning an artifact is disclosed. A single CCD can be configured to obtain color image data for the artifact using conventional imagery, gross shape data using a three-dimensional scanning technique, and high resolution shape data using an amplitude modulated laser scanning technique. A software driven computer processor controls the CCD and a series of illumination projectors to obtain color and gross shape data for an artifact. Algorithms then determine areas of the artifact that need to be scanned at a higher resolution. These areas are then re-scanned using an amplitude modulated laser scanning system. Once the entire artifact has been scanned completely, the color, gross shape, and high resolution shape data is combined into a single image file representative of the artifact. The key advancement is the ability of the present invention to dynamically determine areas of the artifact that require high resolution scans. Thus, only portions of the artifact need to be laboriously scanned while the gross shape data for the rest of the artifact suffices. The result is a significant reduction in time and storage requirements for creating and archiving image files for artifacts.

Abstract: Under the conditions that there are 2 or more samples produced in a CCM toning or visual toning process by which colors are adapted to the target color and respective components such as a coloring agent defining the sample color are registered in a CCM system, the reproducibility of the samples is evaluated based on the difference nullRnulln (n denotes a sample number) between spectral reflectance RSTnulln obtained by actually measuring the respective samples and spectral reflectance RPRnulln obtained by the CCM simulation corresponding to the coloring agent recipe for the sample color at the same n, and determination whether toning work should be continued or not is rapidly and simply performed. On the other hand, when an abnormal sample is perceived, the difference nullRnullnullb of the sample obtained from the specified equations is determined and, by comparison of the difference between the target color and a color of a toning sample in the color matching process, components such as a coloring agent mixed into the abnormal sample is presumed and its mixed amount is presumed.
