Parameter Option Description
CMYK rendering
intent All printers, monitors, and scanners have a gamut or range of
colors that they can output (or view in the case of a scanner). If a
color needs to be output and is outside the gamut of the output
device, it must be mapped or approximated to some other color
that exists within the gamut. Rendering intent compresses
out
‑of‑gamut colors into the color capability of the printer you are
using. When working with ICC profiles, it is important that you
select the rendering intent that best preserves the important
aspects of the image. Each rendering method specifies a CRD for
color conversions.
Provides the following options:
● Auto—Select this option when your file includes different
objects on the same page—for example, a presentation that
includes JPEG pictures, text, and Excel graphs. A different
rendering intent is automatically applied to each type of object
(image, text, and graphic). If RGB images and CMYK graphic
elements are on the same page, the RGB images will use the
perceptual rendering intent, while the CMYK graphic elements
will use the relative rendering intent.
Note: Preserve pure CMY colors is not affected by this
rendering intent option.
● Relative—This is the default option for CMYK. This rendering
intent maps some closely related colors in the input color space
to the closest possible color in the output color space. This
mapping reduces the number of colors in the image.
● Absolute—Select this method for representing "signature"
colors (colors that are strongly identified with a commercial
product). Colors that fall inside the output color space are
represented very accurately.
● Saturation—Select this method for artwork and graphs in
presentations. In many cases, this option can be used for
mixed pages that contain both presentation graphics and
photographs.
Note: Select Saturation to achieve smoothness when you print
RGB vector graphics (non image graphics).
● Perceptual—This is the default option for RGB. Select this
method when working with realistic images such as
photographs, including scans and images from stock
photography CDs. All or most colors in the original images are
changed, but the relationship between the colors does not
change.
