Abstract

An image processing system includes a color standard storage unit that stores multiple color standards that output apparatuses having a shared output method specify range of color reproduction, a virtual color gamut information unit stored associated with the color standard, associated with the color standard, and processed statistically, a color space converter that converts image data input from a network into image data in color space of the color standard, and a preview image generator that color-compresses the image data in the color standard within range of color reproduction of the output apparatus and generates a preview image from the image data generated after color-compression.
