Profile A file containing a description of the color characteristics of a device such as a monitor,

printer, or scanner.
Refresh Rate – The number of times the display screen is electronically scanned or "painted"
each second. Expressed in Hertz (Hz).
Saturation – An expression of the amount a color deviates from being achromatic (neutral in color,
such as gray). For example, red is a saturated color, while pink is less saturated, and white has no
saturation.

Soft Proof – Previewing on a display monitor what an image will actually look like when printed on
a particular printer.
Subtractive Primaries – Cyan, magenta, and yellow colors, such as dyes or inks that subtract
light reflecting off objects giving the appearance of color. For example magenta ink subtracts
green light. When combined together, cyan, magenta, and yellow produce black.
Tone Response Curve – A graph representing the relationship between the input and output of a
system or device. In SpectraView, Tone Response Curves represent the relationship between the
intensity of a color within an application and the light intensity displayed on the monitor.

keyboards, mice, scanners, color sensors, etc.
