The general purpose of a colour space is to determine the range of colours available within a specific workflow and may be determined by a user or programmatically.
- The Adobe RGB (1998) colour space aims to ensure the optimal range of colours available within the RGB colour model are accurately reproduced when output to digital displays or printers.
- In a digital environment, the aim is to ensure that a selected range of colours appears consistent throughout a workflow and that the desired range of colours is successfully reproduced at the end of the process.
