ABSTRACT:
A pure rendering intent is used to render text and line art in color imaging systems. A CMY image goes through a one hundred percent under color removal process creating a CMYK image. The CMYK image is processed by a set of clamping tone reproduction curves. The clamping tone reproduction curves shift nearly saturated colors to total saturation. The result is a rendering of text and line art that has improved clarity and legibility.
