Abstract: The Microsoft Windows Vista operating system provides WCS(Windows Color System) color manage system,mapping between device color space and standard color space has been using measurement-based device model profile which combined with relevant device model.CIECAM02 color appearance model has been adopted in WCS as color translation space,so that color vision attribute of different vision condition could be forecasted.On the basic of researching on characteristic and work flow of WCS color management which developed by Microsoft and Canon company,according to WCS device model profile scheme and measurement data of display,using XML format to write a device model profile,by designing an experiment method of using display to simulate color cross-media transmission,the result of cross-media color transmission has been evaluated directly;the result of comparing images which separately output by ICC color management system and WCS color management system has further confirmed the strongpoint of WCS color management system in color real-time translation and cross-media reproduction.This paper’s research result makes certain guide sense on implementing high quality color reproduction with WCS color management system.

Key words: cross-media, color appearance model, color management, profiles
