About this guide
This guide provides an overview of general color concepts, with a specific focus on
color management for print output. It describes multiple scenarios (called workflows)
during which color information can be specified, and makes recommendations about
when to use each type of workflow. It also provides application notes that explain how
to print to the Fiery from popular Microsoft Windows and Apple Mac OS
applications.
The Glossary at the back of this guide defines terms and concepts—for example,
output profile—that appear throughout this manual. Color terms and concepts such as
“RGB data,” “color space,” “spot color,” “gamut,” and “source profile” are used
throughout this guide. If you are new to desktop color, or if any terms are unfamiliar,
consult the Glossary near the end of this guide.
