Abstract

In preparation for rendering respective portions of a document via a respective plurality of engines, objects within the document are identified and characterized. A determination is made as to whether gamut variations between the engines might result in objectionable variations in the appearance of rendered versions of identified objects having similar characteristics. For those objects within the document for which the determination is made that variations might be objectionable, a target gamut is selected to be an intersection gamut of the engines to be used to render the document. For those objects within the document for which the determination is made that variations would be unobjectionable, the target gamut is selected to be that of selected individual engines. A system for selecting target gamuts for objects within a document can include an object identifier, a characteristic identifier and a gamut selector.
