colormanaged
Colormanaged, often written as “color‑managed,” refers to the set of processes and technologies used to ensure consistent and accurate colour reproduction across different devices such as cameras, scanners, monitors, printers and digital displays. The concept is rooted in the need to translate colour information from one device’s colour space to another’s, compensating for the varying characteristics of each device’s gamut, white point, gamma and response curves.
The core of colour management involves the creation and use of device profiles, typically defined by International
Standardised colour spaces such as sRGB, Adobe RGB, and ProPhoto RGB serve as common reference points. Operating
Limitations persist, including the difficulty of achieving perfect perceptual matching for out‑of‑gamut colours and the reliance
