ColorSync filter

kColorSyncImageFilterType ('sync')

The color sync filter adjusts the color balance of an image to match a specified color sync profile. Typically, you would use this to adjust the color profile of an image to match the current display device. This allows you to maintain accurate color representations across devices. You specify both the color sync profile of the source image and the color sync profile of the destination device the image will be rendered to.

The color sync filter takes a maximum of one source and has two parameters.
