Creating an ICC monitor profile Your monitor will display color more reliably if you use color management and maintain accurate ICC monitor profiles. A monitor calibration utility lets you calibrate and characterize your monitor to a standard and then save the settings as an ICC-compliant profile available to any program that uses your color management system. This calibration helps you eliminate any color cast in your monitor, makes your monitor grays as neutral as possible, and standardizes image display across different monitors. Depending on your workflow scenario, an ICC monitor profile can be either a source profile, a destination profile, or both. Although software calibration utilities are effective calibration and profiling tools, hardware-based utilities are more precise. For best results, use a hardware-based utility that can generate an ICC-compliant profile. Note: If you use a flat-panel monitor, either use a third-party utility to create a monitor profile, or load the monitor profile included with the monitor.
