Steve on Image Processing

December 20th, 2006

Every now and then, a visitor to my office will ask, "Hey, what does that equation on your whiteboard mean?"

So how about it, dear readers? What does "B = PCS" mean? Post your guess as a comment. I'll post the answer in a few days.

   I guess that PCS is “Profile Connection Space” and that B is the letter used in the BtoA and AtoB nomenclature. I also guess that A is the device profile space.

   Do I win a prize?

   Oops. I see that you posted the answer before I made my “guess.” Silly me.

   Anyway, walking by your office everyday I get a little reminder that B = PCS. Thanks! Now if only you could help us remember which numbers correspond to the different rendering intents.
