Color Profiles

The Color Profiles preference tool enables you to manage, install and generate color profiles to accurately color manage input (webcams, scanners) and output devices (displays, printers). ]

Overview

The Xfce Color Profile settings tool is a front-end to set up color management for printers, scanners, and displays. It provides an interface for colord integration into Xfce. Colord is a system service that enables you to manage, install and generate color profiles to accurately color manage input (webcams, scanners) and output devices.

Color Profile Dialogue Window

The Color Profile dialog enables you to:

  • Enable/disable color management per device
  • Add or import color profiles per device
  • Enable a profile and set it as default

What it doesn’t do:

  • Calibration – You still have to use a tool, such as, displaycal to calibrate your display.
  • Show detailed profile information (like a horseshoe color diagram). You still have to use a tool like gcm-viewer for that functionality.
