A system and a method of adjusting colors of print data are provided. The
system includes a printer driver converting a document transmitted from
an application program into print data suitable for a printer and
transmitting the print data to the printer. A soft proofing unit applies
a soft proofing process to the print data converted by the printer
driver. A display unit displays the print data obtained through the soft
proofing process. A color lookup table (CLUT) supplies a color adjustment
value to the print data when the print data is processed in the soft
proofing unit. A system and a method of adjusting colors of print data is
also provided to allow a user to accurately predict and adjust the colors
of a printout, thereby obtaining the printout having the desired colors.
Additionally, a method is provided of adjusting colors of print data to
modify and apply a color lookup table (CLUT) for converting RGB image
data into CMYK image data in a print driver by performing a soft proofing
process and using a gradation chart for a preference of a user, thereby
increasing user satisfaction of colors.
