What is Color Profile

A set of data that, according to the standards that have been adopted by the International Color Consortium (ICC), characterizes a color input or output device or a color space is referred to as an ICC profile. This profile is the basis for color management. By providing a mapping between the device source or target color space and a profile connection space (PCS), profiles are able to provide a description of the color characteristics that are associated with a certain device or viewing requirement. Either CIELAB (L*a*b*) or CIEXYZ is considered to be this PCS. There are two ways to specify mappings: either through the use of tables, which are then subjected to interpolation, or by a sequence of parameters concerning transformations.
