Abstract
An image reading apparatus measures, color by color, an average transmission-density signal based upon image information obtained from a color original through which light is transmitted, converts the measured average transmission-density signal of every color into a subject-lightness signal of every color, and effects a conversion into a reference color stimulus signal, which is indicated by the apex of a triangle substantially circumscribed by a spectrum locus of a predetermined chromaticity diagram, based upon the converted subject-lightness signal of every color.
