Abstract

A color look-up-table (LUT) is created for use by an imaging system which uses a resource to display an image and/or provides an attribute of the image. A method of creating the LUT, comprises selecting (S1) a threshold value of resource usage and/or metric of the attribute. A predetermined color look-up-table representing a mapping from color values of a first color gamut to color values displayable by the imaging system is accessed. The predetermined color look-up-table has nodes defining colors to be displayed for the said color values. Resource usage and/or attribute values associated with the said nodes are compared with the threshold value thereby determining the set of nodes of the predetermined gamut having a resource usage and/or attribute values less than the threshold value (S2a, S2b, S3, S4). A new look-up-table is created (S5) which maps the said predetermined color gamut look-up-table to the said set of nodes.
