ICCvärihallint refers to International Color Consortium (ICC) color management. The ICC is a non-profit consortium of hardware, software, and color science companies dedicated to creating and promoting standards for color management. ICC profiles are the core of this system, acting as digital "fingerprints" that describe the color characteristics of devices such as monitors, printers, scanners, and cameras.

These profiles allow for accurate and consistent color reproduction across different devices and workflows. Without proper color management, colors can appear differently on a monitor compared to a print, or even between different monitors. ICC profiles enable software applications to translate colors from one device's color space to another, ensuring that the intended colors are displayed or printed as closely as possible.

The ICC standard defines a file format for these profiles and a framework for their use. This means that a profile created for a specific monitor can be used by any color-managed application to correctly interpret and display colors from an image on that monitor. Similarly, a printer profile describes how a printer reproduces colors, allowing software to convert image colors into a format that the printer can render accurately. The goal of ICCvärihallint is to bridge the gap between how colors are captured, displayed, and reproduced, leading to predictable and reliable color results in graphic design, photography, printing, and many other color-dependent industries.
