Adjustment of an Output Color

This section describes how to adjust the output color.

To adjust the output color, there are two methods. One is a method of specifying the value and the other is a method of selecting from the spot color.

Specify the Value

  1. Specify the CMYK values which are to be set as the output color, in the input boxes below [Adjust] - [After Adjustment].

    According to the settings, the preview area of [Adjust] - [After Adjustment] and [After Adjustment] on the list are updated.

    • If you selected the [RGB] tab and checked [RGB(0%-100%)], set the RGB values in the range of 0 to 100.

    • If you selected the [RGB] tab and removed the check from [RGB(0%-100%)], set the RGB values in the range of 0 to 255.

    • If you selected the [RGB] tab and checked [CMYK(0-255)], set the CMYK values in the range of 0 to 255.

    • If you selected the [RGB] tab and removed the check from [CMYK(0-255)], set the CMYK values in the range of 0 to 100.

    • If you selected the [CMYK] tab and checked [CMYK(0-255)], set the value for each color in the range of 0 to 255.

    • If you selected the [CMYK] tab and removed the check from [CMYK(0-255)], set the value for each color in the range of 0 to 100.

    • If the value is displayed in percentage, you can enter a value to the first decimal place.

    • Similar operation can be done when you change the CMYK values on the right of [After Adjustment] of the list.

  2. Confirm the preview of [After Adjustment], and repeat Step 1 as required.
