Patent ID: 7706020

Claim:
A computer-implemented method for generating a transform performed on a computing device using a color engine, the computer-implemented method comprising: identifying a first device model plug-in to a first device model, the first device model plug-in comprising executable code provided as an extension to the color engine by a third party independent of a provider of the color engine; identifying a first device model profile plug-in to a first device model profile, the first device model profile plug-in comprising data referenced to the first device model; executing the first in device model plug-in over the data contained in the first device model profile plug-in via the computing device; executing a first color appearance model over data in a first color appearance model profile via the computing device; generating a first gamut boundary shell from execution of the first device model plug-in and the first color appearance model; and generating a transform based on the first gamut boundary shell via the computing device.
