摘要： Embodiments herein include a method, service, apparatus, etc., that receives initial user input comprising natural language commands that identify the initial color selection. The method displays the initial color samples or patches corresponding to the initial color selection in a two-dimensional grid and receives additional user input comprising additional natural language commands and a refined axis selection. The embodiments herein revise the initial color selection to a revised color selection based on a color change magnitude, a color change direction, and a color change property. Then, this method matches the revised color selection to the computer program colors to produce refined matching colors. These refined matching colors are displayed as refined color samples or patches in the two-dimensional grid. The axes of the two-dimensional grid can correspond to the refined axis selection and the assigned names can also be displayed on the graphic user interface.

摘要： A method of color selection is described including a component to parse a natural language color specification into a set of colloquial color names and a set of flags to indicate whether a color name is to be included or excluded from the color selection. Components are also included to find the best matches of colloquial color names in a library of colloquial color names and map the best matches to one or more standard colors in a library of standard colors. A transform building component uses the standard colors names and the flags to create a mathematical selection transform, typically in the form of a multi-dimensional lookup table. If necessary, another component converts arbitrary sets of test color coordinates into color encoding identical to that used for the standard colors to produce a color selection.

摘要： This presently described embodiment deals with this problem by dynamically constructing color management device profiles that are optimized for accurate reproduction of a particular document. This apparatus utilizes three components. Device characterization data describes the relationship between device drive values (e.g., CMYK in the case of a 4 color printer) and the resulting color (spectral, CIELab, CIEXYZ or similar). Critical document colors are the critical colors in a document that is to be output on the device. The colors will generally be described by their CIELab, CIEXYZ or similar coordinates, but may also include color tolerances and frequency of occurrence values. Device modeling algorithms are mathematical procedures that allow the construction of device-to-color and color-to-device models in a way that different accuracy weightings can be applied in different regions of color space. These components function together to build a device profile in which the errors in the critical document colors are minimized.
