Argyll is an experimental ICC-compatible color management system. Argyll Color Management System supports accurate ICC profile creation for scanners, CMYK printers, film recorders, and display monitors.

Spectral sample data is supported, allowing a selection of illuminants observer types, and paper fluorescent whitener additive compensation. Profiles can also incorporate source-specific gamut mappings for perceptual and saturation intents.

Gamut mapping and profile linking uses the CIECAM02 appearance model, a unique gamut mapping algorithm, and a wide selection of rendering intents.

It also includes code for a fast, portable 8-bit raster color conversion engine, as well as support for fast, fully accurate 16-bit conversion. Device color gamuts can also be viewed and compared using a VRML viewer.

What's New in This Release:
Support for the USB-based X-Rite DTP94 (AKA Optix) display colorimeter.
Comprehensive display control adjustment and calibration support.
Full multi-monitor support for display adjustment, calibration, and profiling on all supported operating systems (MS Windows, OS X, and Linux/X11). Numerous bugfixes, and many minor feature additions and improvements.
