Macintosh ColorSync
Copyright 1992, Apple Computer, Inc.
ColorSync, Apple’s new color-matching architecture for the Macintosh, is a
system extension that enables consistent color across the system. This
extension will provide system level color matching services to all
applications, scanners, displays and printers. ColorSync allows for the color
of the original art you scan to be the same color that appears on your
display--and the color you see on the display will be the same when it is
printed.
The result will be more consistent and predictable color-matching results from
all of your color applications, whether you are producing desktop presentations
and newsletters or color film separations.
ColorSync provides both the ability to match between input, display and output
as well as new capabilities, such as the ability to preview the color matched
document, which applications can take advantage of in the future.
Installation is easy. Simply drag the Macintosh ColorSync icon to your System 7
Folder and restart your Macintosh. ColorSync then becomes part of the Macintosh
operating system and provides the foundation for:
Matched color every time
With ColorSync savvy solutions you can count on consistent, predictable color
results. Through a profile, ColorSync knows the specific characteristics of
each scanner, monitor, or printer you use, and then a sophisticated algorithm
provides the best color match from one device to the next. It’s all that most
people need to produce documents with outstanding color fidelity.
System-level simplicity
ColorSync provides color matching at the system level. This means you can
install ColorSync and then forget about it. ColorSync operates behind the
scenes, providing color matching services to the application and device
drivers.
A platform for additional color-matching methods
Another important advantage of ColorSync is that--thanks to its open
architecture--it provides a platform for developers to add to or customize with
other, specialized color-matching models for enhanced speed or color fidelity.
