Abstract
A host apparatus connectable to an image forming apparatus and a method are provided. The host apparatus includes a storage configured to store a portable document format (PDF) file, an object extractor configured to extract at least one object that requires color conversion from among objects included in the stored PDF file, a color conversion processor configured to perform color conversion process for each of the extracted objects by using a color conversion function corresponding to each of the extracted objects, and a communication interface configured to transmit the PDF file where the color conversion process is performed to the image forming apparatus.
Claims21
A host apparatus connectable to an image forming apparatus, the apparatus comprising:
- an object extractor configured to extract at least one object that requires color conversion from among objects included in a portable document format (PDF) file;
- a color conversion processor configured to perform a color conversion process for the extracted object by using a color conversion function;
- and
- a communication interface configured to transmit the PDF file where the color conversion process is performed to the image forming apparatus.
The host apparatus as claimed 5, further comprising:
- a controller configured to control the user interface to display a preview screen where one of the color conversion function and the standard color conversion function selected through the user interface screen is applied to the object.
