Gamut Compression

From ColorWiki

Jump to: navigation, search

A form of gamut mapping in which the range of color values produced by an input device (e.g. a color scanner) is reduced to fit within the smaller available gamut of the output device (e.g. a CMYK press).

Gamut compression can be crucial to good color reproduction but colors that have been gamut compressed will seldom match the original.
