Abstract
A system and method is provided for color managing different content objects in at least one source file. In one embodiment of the present invention, the system includes a color management module, a rendering module, an interface (e.g., GUI), and a memory module for storing a plurality of color profiles. The interface allows a user to specify different color profiles and/or parameters for different object types. For example, the user can specify different source color spaces to use for the default source color spaces based upon object type. Similarly, the user can specify different output color spaces to use based upon object type. Finally, software can be used to generate a map that specifies the object type(s) that leads to the creation of each individual pixel in the rasterized output. Parameters (e.g., brightness, contrast, etc.) of individual pixels can then be adjusted based on object type and user-defined, object-based settings.
