Abstract:
1. A method comprising: obtaining a document specification from a document server wherein the document specification specifies a document; examining metadata of a document color characterization associated with the document specification to determine if the document color characterization already matches a device color characterization wherein a rendering device is associated with the device color characterization and wherein the metadata indicates that the document color characterization matches the device color characterization such that alteration to the document color characterization is not needed in order for the rendering device to faithfully produce the document; performing a color transformation to produce another document color characterization associated with the document specification only if the document color characterization does not match the device color characterization; and rendering the document on the rendering device wherein the document is faithfully rendered because the document specification is associated with a color characterization matching the device color characterization.
