Abstract
In a three-dimensional LUT for color conversion, the values of converted color component data C', M', and Y' are varied for a specific combination of the values of color component data C, M, and Y representing white, and the values of converted data are then changed for other combinations accompanied by the variation with respect to the specific combination. Referring to FIG. 1B, a concrete procedure first calculates variations of the values of color component data C', M', and Y' at step S20, and then selects combinations of the values of color component data C, M, and Y for which the values of color component data C', M', and Y' are not changed, among a plurality of combinations of the values of color component data C, M, and Y at step S22. For colors between white and cyan, magenta, yellow or black, the variations of the values of color component data C', M', and Y' are set to decrease in an increase in distance from a point corresponding to white in a three-dimensional color space at step S24. The procedure then leads Laplace's Equation including the variations and the values of color component data C, M, and Y as variables at step S26, and solves the Laplace's Equation to deter…
