The International Color Consortium has a new website at www.color.org, designed to make information about the ICC's work on colour management more accessible and easier to use.
The new site features: improved navigation; a search facility; a section designed for new colour management users; and details on the V4 ICC specification and profiles, advantages of using V4 and products supporting the current version. It also offers increased functionality of the Members-Only section; a test to analyze whether a user's system handles V4 files correctly; and new White Papers on topics at fundamental, intermediate and advanced levels of colour management.
In addition, an interactive capability allows users to ask questions of ICC technical secretary Dr Philip Green and is available in a French version.
The International Color Consortium was established in 1993 by eight industry vendors for the purpose of creating, promoting and encouraging the standardization and evolution of an open, vendor neutral, cross platform colour management system architecture and components. The outcome of this co-operation was the development of the ICC profile specification. The ICC specification V4 is now widely used and is referred to in many international and other de-facto standards. It has recently been approved as an International Standard, ISO 15076.
The ICC now has 70 members.
