Abstract
In an example a method includes deriving a print agent coverage vector specifying an area coverage for each of a plurality of elements, wherein each element is associated with a print agent, a print agent combination or an absence of print agent. Deriving the print agent coverage vector comprises, for a first element of the print agent coverage vector, applying a first weighting function which varies based on an intended area color value.
Claims15
A method comprising:
- deriving a print agent coverage vector specifying an area coverage for each of a plurality of elements, wherein each element is associated with a print agent, a print agent combination or an absence of print agent,
- wherein deriving the print agent coverage vector comprises, for a first element of the print agent coverage vector, applying a first weighting function which varies based on an intended area color value.
A processing apparatus comprising:
- a print agent coverage vector module to determine a plurality of print agent coverage vectors, each of the print agent coverage vectors comprising a set of elements, wherein each element is associated with a print agent, a print agent combination, or an absence of print agent;
- and
- a weighting function module to apply a weighting function in determining the print agent coverage vectors, such that a weight of at least one element within the set of elements varies with an intended area color value.
A non-transitory machine readable medium comprising instructions which,
- when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:
- derive a print agent coverage vector specifying an area coverage for each of a plurality of elements, wherein each element is associated with a print agent, print agent combination or an absence of print agent, wherein deriving the print agent coverage vector comprises, for a first element of the print agent coverage vector, applying a weighting factor which varies based on an intended area colorimetry of the print agent coverage vector.
