Description 

KCMS Application Developer's Guide

This book describes the Kodak Color Management System (KCMS) framework application programming interface (API). The KCMS framework enables the accurate reproduction, and improves the appearance of, digital color images on desktop computers and associated peripherals. With this API you can write applications that perform correct color conversions and manipulations. 

KCMS CMM Developer's Guide

This book describes how to create a KCMS color management module (CMM). It provides information on how to use the KCMS foundation library, which is a graphics porting interface (GPI) implemented in C++. These interfaces link the device-independent layer of the KCMS library with the color module and enable the flow of data from the application to the color module. Read this document if you are a driver developer who is writing a color module for color management technology. 

KCMS CMM Reference Manual

This book describes each C++ class in the KCMS foundation library. This library is a graphics porting interface implemented in C++ for creating KCMS color modules. Read this document if you are a driver developer who is writing a color module for color management technology. 

 

KCMS Calibrator Tool Loadable Interface Guide

This book describes how to create a dynamically loadable device handler module that provides the KCMS Calibrator Tool with color correction data to update ICC format files. The document presents an overview of the interaction between the dynamically loadable module and the KCMS Calibrator Tool.  

KCMS Test Suite User's Guide

This book describes a suite of test scripts and the testing facility the CMM developer can use to ensure that a CMM is KCMS-framework compliant. The document is also a reference for anyone interested in the development and use of the KCMS framework.
