applications generally produce CMYK data. Desktop applications
can also generate spot colors, such as PANTONE colors. To
complicate matters, a single page may contain a mix of RGB,
CMYK, and spot colors. The Fiery allows users to control the
printing of these mixed-color documents with features that apply
specifically to RGB, CMYK, or spot color data. Fiery color
management generates CMYK data to be sent to the printer.
The following diagram illustrates the print options in the Fiery
color management process that affect color data conversions. You
can access these print options when you send a print job to the
Fiery. Most of these options and settings are described in
subsequent sections of this chapter.

the more rarely used Lab, XYZ, and other calibrated color spaces.

Source Profile affects all CIEBasedABC color spaces (if the source
space is RGB). If you send CMYK data to the Fiery in
