When using image processing programs from Adobe based software, CMS is already in place.
Unless the user have set the usage option of RGB and CMYK of Color Management Policies
to ‘OFF' intentionally, the users' image process would be managed by CMS.
CMS execute the functions such as program management, color management and alteration of
color quality from th‘e Gamut' property. For CMS to function thoroughly and accurately, printing-related businesses implement systems such as GMG's color management system to have best quality output. It is because color management systems like the one mentioned above controls the color of a product by using its own unique color alteration engine and color profile. It is also compatible with ICC color profiles that are used commonly. Although the bases of CMS are the usage of color engine, every operating system consists of their own. For example, PC Windows would have ‘Microsoft ICM', which is internal color engine, and Mac OS X 10 would hav‘e Quates', which is also an internal color engine of its own. Although the systems like ACE, ICM or Quates are the base of CMS, if used incorrectly it could cause problems like uneven color distribution or disfiguration as they all have different value points of color expressions and achievables
In CMS management side point of view though, especially when you use Adobe based
software because of its compatibleness with other systems like PC Windows and Mac OS X,
it could give great proficiency when Adobe ACE color engine is unified to be used in both
operating systems without any clashes.
CMS processes an allocated image file by reading its ‘Gamut'through ICC color profile
information. ‘ICC Color Profile' is to do with controlling the information of image tons and its
limits and usually CMS includes these information to any image files that have been created.
If a file is readable by programs like ‘Photoshop' and uses CMS, profile information that fits ‘working space = tons expression areas' would be included in the file when it is saved.
Just as ships can not travel without a help from map and compass, image file would cause
errors with its tons and qualities if profile information is not included in the file. Especially
programs that can not read ICC color profile information, disfiguration of image tons and color
qualities will be more extreme level. Hence, we need better understanding of ICC color profile's
‘ton expression areas: Gamut' and ton changes for the print purposes.
