Using ICC profiles in Enfocus PitStop Server

Enfocus PitStop Server can be set to use the same profiles for all objects, or to use specific profiles for images. In the first case, there will only be one tab, to define color management for all objects. In the latter case, there will be a tab to define color management for images, and one for other objects.

Enfocus PitStop Server enables you to specify source and target ICC profiles for the following color models:

Gray
RGB
CMYK
Lab

The ICC profiles will be used when color conversions have to be done from one color model to another, for example, when RGB colors are converted to CMYK colors.

When necessary, the target profiles can be set different than the source profiles, by selecting the “use other ICC profile than source” option, and defining the target profiles.

You can define ICC profiles at different levels:

Default ICC profiles apply to all hot folders. You specify these profiles in the Enfocus PitStop Server preferences.
Specific ICC profiles apply to a particular hot folder. You may want to use these profiles to process PDF documents in which color conversions have to be performed from a given color model to a device-specific color.
Specific ICC profiles defined in a Preflight Profile or in an Action List
