The following are recommendations for output colour space and monitor ICC-profile settings with
image-processing applications. Some applications have a monitor correction display function which
automatically corrects the monitor display to a specific colour space.
With an application with a monitor correction display function (such as Adobe Photoshop Ver.5 to 6):
Output Colour Space : Select the same colour space as set in the application.
With Photoshop ver. 5.0 or later, look in the colour-setting
option in the file menu for the profile setup window.
ICC Profile : Use the profile for the monitor in use.
With an application without a monitor correction display function such as Photoshop Elements, or
when the function is disabled:
Output Colour Space : Monitor RGB
ICC Profile : Use the profile for the monitor in use.
An ICC profile for a specific monitor is available from the manufacturer. These may be downloaded
from the manufacturer’s web site. See the monitors instruction manual on how to install the ICC profile.
Colour monitor ICC profiles can be created with one of the profile creation tools on the market. They
can also be created with the monitor-adjustment-assistant function installed in the Macintosh operating
system, or with Adobe gamma included in Adobe Photoshop (ver.5.0 or later) for Windows.
