Step S24: the brightness variable quantity and the saturation degree variable quantity that calculate described secondary color MN and aim colour X; According to brightness variable quantity, saturation degree variable quantity and described second data and the 4th data, when determining that brightness as described secondary color MN is adjusted to the brightness of aim colour X and the saturation degree variable quantity of the saturation degree of described secondary color MN and aim colour X being adjusted to the saturation degree range of tolerable variance that sets in advance, the chalk of actual required interpolation and/or the degree of tusche.
Further, step S24 can comprise step S241 and step S242.
Step S241: the brightness variable quantity that calculates secondary color MN and aim colour X; According to brightness variable quantity, described second data and the 4th data, determine that when the brightness with secondary color MN is adjusted to the brightness of aim colour X the chalk of required interpolation or the degree of tusche, described chalk comprise removes light dose or water down white.
Concrete, can adopt following formula (10) to calculate the brightness variable quantity of secondary color MN and aim colour X:
ΔL=L
MN-L

In the following formula (10), L
MNThe original intensity of secondary color MN when changing color ink M, N allotment aim colour X for using, L

Step S242: the saturation degree variable quantity that calculates secondary color MN and aim colour X; Adjust the degree and described the 4th data of the chalk and/or the tusche of required interpolation according to saturation degree variable quantity, the definite brightness of step S241, when determining that brightness as secondary color MN is adjusted to the brightness of aim colour X and the saturation degree variable quantity of the saturation degree of secondary color MN and aim colour X being adjusted to the saturation degree range of tolerable variance that sets in advance, the chalk of actual required interpolation and/or the degree of tusche.
This step main purpose is by taking all factors into consideration saturation degree variable quantity and brightness variable quantity, determine secondary color MN with conversion color ink M, N allotment aim colour X, the chalk of actual required interpolation and/or the degree of tusche, thereby make adjusted brightness of secondary color MN and saturation degree, identical with the brightness of aim colour X respectively or suitable with saturation degree.
Concrete, can adopt following formula (11) to calculate the saturation degree variable quantity of secondary color MN and aim colour X:
ΔS=S
MN-S
X (11)
In the following formula (11), S
MNBe the initial saturation degree of allocating the secondary color MN of aim colour X, S with conversion color ink M, N
XBe the saturation degree of aim colour X, Δ S is the saturation degree variable quantity of secondary color MN and aim colour X.When determining whether that according to the saturation degree variable quantity needs are adjusted the initial saturation degree of secondary color MN, can comprise following several situation:
(1) as Δ S
2≤ Δ S≤Δ S
1The time, do not need to adjust the saturation degree of secondary color MN, wherein, Δ S
1For the saturation degree that sets in advance is adjusted first tolerance and Δ S
1>0, Δ S
2For the saturation degree that sets in advance is adjusted second tolerance and Δ S
2<0, [Δ S
2, Δ S
1] range of tolerable variance adjusted for saturation degree.
The basic principle of adjusting secondary color MN saturation degree is: the saturation degree that makes secondary color MN is as far as possible near the saturation degree of aim colour X.In the printing ink color matching process, can reduce the saturation degree of secondary color MN by the tusche that adds certain percentage content; But be difficult to realize improving the saturation degree of a certain color usually.
In the application in practice process, can set in advance saturation degree and adjust the first tolerance Δ S according to the sensitivity of human eye vision to aberration
1Adjust the second tolerance Δ S with saturation degree
2, [Δ S
2, Δ S
1] range of tolerable variance adjusted for saturation degree.When saturation degree variation delta S falls into the range of tolerable variance that saturation degree is adjusted, then can think secondary color MN saturation degree and aim colour X saturation degree quite or identical, do not need to adjust the saturation degree of secondary color MN under this situation.When the range of tolerable variance of saturation degree adjustment is set, for example: can be with Δ S
1Setting in advance is 1%~6%, with Δ S
2Set in advance and be-6%~-1%; Poor in order to reduce color matching, improve the color matching accuracy, preferred, with Δ S
1Setting in advance is 1%, with Δ S
2Set in advance and be-1%.
(2) as Δ S<Δ S
2<0 o'clock, the result that output can't be matched colors.
Because in the printing ink color matching process, the saturation degree of a certain color can not increase usually, can only reduce.Therefore, as Δ S<Δ S
2<0 o'clock, the saturation degree with the secondary color MN of conversion color ink M, N allotment is described, differ greatly with the saturation degree of aim colour X, it is inaccurate to match colors, therefore, the exportable result that can't match colors under this situation.
(3) as Δ S>Δ S
1>0 o'clock, determine under the form and aspect of aim colour X, when the saturation degree of secondary color MN is adjusted to the range of tolerable variance that saturation degree adjusts, the degree of the tusche of required interpolation.
Store the 3rd corresponding relation between saturation degree variable quantity under a certain form and aspect and tusche degree in the core database in advance.After adopting following formula (11) to calculate Δ S, in the inquiry core database, the 4th corresponding relation between saturation degree variable quantity under the form and aspect of aim colour X and tusche degree, in the time of can determining that saturation degree variation delta S is adjusted to the range of tolerable variance that saturation degree adjusts, need the degree of the tusche that adds.
Owing to add the tusche of certain percentage content, can cause the brightness of a certain color and saturation degree all can change.Therefore, during the degree of the tusche that the secondary color MN actual needs when determining with conversion color ink M, N allotment aim colour X adds, need take all factors into consideration chalk or tusche degree and the definite tusche degree of this step S242 that above-mentioned steps S241 determines, for example: reduce saturation degree by adding tusche, if cause the brightness of brightness to reduce owing to add tusche, then can be by carrying out luminance compensation at the interpolation chalk; So adjust the chalk of actual needs increase and/or the percent of total content of tusche repeatedly, and the interpolation of chalk and tusche order, brightness until adjusted secondary color MN equals the brightness of aim colour X and the saturation degree variable quantity of adjusted secondary color MN and aim colour X, falls into the range of tolerable variance of the saturation degree adjustment that sets in advance.
Step S25: according to the chalk of the required interpolation of determining of described reality and/or the degree and described the 4th data of tusche, the hue shift amount the when chalk that the described actual needs of definite interpolation adds and/or the degree of tusche.
Behind the degree of chalk that the actual needs of determining according to step S242 adds and/or tusche, can search the 4th data that core database is stored in advance, can obtain under the form and aspect of aim colour X, add the hue shift amount behind the degree of so many chalks and/or tusche.
Step S26: with the form and aspect of the definite hue shift amount revise goal look X of step S25, the color that will have revised form and aspect is as fresh target look repeated execution of steps S22-step S25, when the definite hue shift amount of step S25 falls into the range of tolerable variance of the form and aspect adjustment that sets in advance, export described printing ink color matching prescription.
In the application in practice process, can set in advance form and aspect and adjust the first tolerance Δ H according to the sensitivity of human eye vision to aberration
1Adjust the second tolerance Δ H with form and aspect
2, [Δ H
2, Δ H
1] range of tolerable variance adjusted for form and aspect.When hue shift amount Δ H falls into range of tolerable variance [the Δ H that form and aspect are adjusted
2, Δ H
1] time, then can think under the form and aspect of aim colour X according to step 241 definite chalk and tusche ground interpolation order, the hue shift amount of adding behind the degree of chalk that actual needs that step 241 determines adds and/or tusche can be ignored, and the form and aspect of the form and aspect of the color that mixes and aim colour X quite or identical.
When the range of tolerable variance of form and aspect adjustment is set, for example: in order to reduce the color matching aberration, improve the color matching accuracy, can be with Δ H
1Setting in advance is 1 °~8 °, with Δ H
2Set in advance and be-8 °~-1 °; Preferably, with Δ H
1Setting in advance is 1 °, with Δ H
2Set in advance and be-1 °.
Following formula is the example of filling a prescription with conversion color ink M, one when N allocates aim colour X:
(XM+XN) * (1-chalk %-tusche %)+chalk %+ tusche %=1 (12)
In the following formula (12), XM and XN are respectively the M-N content with conversion color ink M, N allotment aim colour X, and XM+XN=100%; Chalk % is the degree of the chalk of actual needs interpolation, can be specially removing light ink or watering down white degree of actual needs interpolation; Tusche % is the degree of the tusche of actual needs interpolation; " chalk % " is positioned at the left side of " tusche % " in the following formula (12), and the interpolation of expression chalk and tusche is in proper order: add tusche after adding chalk earlier.Need to prove that this example only is giving an example of a prescription, actual prescription can adopt other expression mode, should not be construed as the restriction to the technology of the present invention essence.

1] time, can adopt the form and aspect of following formula (13) revise goal look X:
H
X′=H
X+ΔH (13)
In the following formula (13), H
XBe the form and aspect of aim colour X, Δ H is the hue shift amount, H
X 'Form and aspect for the fresh target look.
After adopting the hue shift amount that the form and aspect of aim colour X are revised, be equivalent to redefine aim colour, i.e. fresh target look X '.But repeated execution of steps S22-step S25 one or many under this situation, all adopt respective formula during each execution in step S22-step S25, calculate constituent content, original intensity and initial saturation degree with required conversion color ink M, N of conversion color ink M, N allotment aim colour X ', determine chalk and/or the degree of tusche and the interpolation order of chalk and tusche that actual needs adds according to brightness variable quantity and saturation degree variable quantity, and determine to add hue shift amount behind so many chalks and/or the tusche in proper order according to this.If the hue shift amount falls into the range of tolerable variance that form and aspect are adjusted, then the output prescription is promptly exported with the degree of degree, chalk and/or the tusche of changing color ink M, N allotment aim colour X ' required conversion color ink M, N and the interpolation order of chalk and tusche.If the hue shift amount exceeds the range of tolerable variance that form and aspect are adjusted, then adopt the form and aspect of this hue shift amount correction fresh target look X ', with the revised color of form and aspect as another fresh target look X "; adopt said method to calculate once more ... so circulation; when the last hue shift amount of determining fell into the range of tolerable variance that form and aspect adjust, output is prescription accordingly.
Form and aspect, brightness and the saturation degree of secondary color M, N when the present invention utilizes the data computation of existing core database conversion color ink M, N allotment aim colour X, and take all factors into consideration these parameters and obtain end formulation, this end formulation is for prior art is only considered prescription that form and aspect are converted to, improved the accuracy of color matching, it is as follows below the present invention to be improved the principle analysis of color matching accuracy:
Because core database is based on the printing ink of some brand, set up as Essential colour printing ink P, Q, and the ink type difference that printing enterprise uses, the product that wants to match colors is widely used in the different printing ink of various brands, each batch, just accomplish to match colors product and printing ink brand independence just need be set up a cover conversion plan between different printing ink.
Prior art has only considered that the form and aspect of secondary color that different printing ink are formed are carried out the form and aspect conversion in different printing ink color matching transfer processes, and the brightness of the secondary color that different printing ink are formed and all not considerations of conversion of saturation degree.But form and aspect, brightness and saturation degree are to the accuracy important influence of printing ink color matching, and therefore, prior art has only considered the form and aspect of the secondary color of different printing ink formation are carried out the color matching accuracy deficiency of the conversion color ink color matching method of form and aspect conversion.
The inventor finds in putting into practice the process of prior art, consider brightness and saturation degree if desired, a kind of feasible approximate way is: will allocate original intensity and the initial saturation degree of the secondary color PQ of aim colour with Essential colour printing ink P, Q, the original intensity and the initial saturation degree of directly allocating the secondary color MN of aim colour X as turnover colour changing printing ink M, N.But check by actual measurement, the accuracy of this method color matching is still lower, its reason is: because the hue difference of conversion color ink M, N is less than the hue difference of Essential colour printing ink P, Q, therefore, conversion color ink M, N form the combined coefficient of secondary color MN, will be higher than the efficient that Essential colour printing ink P, Q form secondary color PQ in theory; And, brightness and the saturation degree of conversion color ink M, N, brightness and the saturation degree with Essential colour printing ink P, Q is different respectively.So, to allocate original intensity and the initial saturation degree of the secondary color PQ of aim colour with Essential colour printing ink P, Q, directly as original intensity and initial saturation degree with the secondary color MN that changes color ink M, N allotment aim colour X, error will inevitably occur, this conclusion is the checking by the actual analysis result of drawing a design also.
And the present invention is based on the computability of the photochromic transformation theory midplane of complex frequency spectrum coordinate superior function, utilize the data of existing core database, do not need the corresponding data of conversion color ink is tested in a large number, form and aspect, original intensity and the initial saturation degree of the secondary color in the time of can obtaining with conversion color ink allotment aim colour, and obtain end formulation based on these parameters, therefore being convenient to the user selects for use other the different printing ink of Essential colour printing ink that are different from the core database to match colors, the raising user selects the convenience and the flexibility of printing ink, helps reducing cost.Form and aspect, original intensity and the initial saturation degree of the secondary color when taking all factors into consideration with conversion color ink allotment aim colour X obtain the printing ink color matching prescription in addition, have therefore improved the accuracy of color matching.
In addition, adopt technical scheme provided by the invention to carry out printing ink color matching, can compatible existing standard aberration Δ E
LabAberration estimate on the basis, increase the aberration evaluation method of hue difference, luminance difference and/or saturation degree difference, can provide the reason that causes aberration qualitative, quantitatively, as the reason that causes aberration is hue difference Δ H, luminance difference Δ L and/or saturation degree difference Δ S, therefore be convenient to accurately carry out the aberration correction, thereby help improving the efficient of printing ink color matching.
