Color
Click on the tab labeled “Color Adjust” to edit the overall color properties of the image. The post-RIP
color adjustments that are available are:
 Brightness–indicates how light or dark a color is, how close it is to black. Also known as lightness,
luminance, value, darkness.
 Saturation–the clarity of a color, the extent to which it is not dulled or grayed. The less gray in a
color, the higher the saturation. Also known as chroma, purity, intensity, vividness.
 Color Balance–the relative amounts of cyan, magenta, and yellow in the image. Balance can be
adjusted individually in three aspects of the image:
○ Shadows–the darkest tones of an image, ranging approximately from 80% to 100% ink
coverage.
○ Midtones–the middle range of tones of an image, ranging approximately from 20% to 80% ink
coverage.
○ Highlights–the brightest tones in an image, ranging approximately from 0% to 20% ink
coverage.
 Contrast–the level of variation between light and dark areas in an image. This is also known as
brightness contrast, to differentiate from color contrast.
