The International Color Consortium (ICC) has announced its first ICC Developers Conference”?a tutorial day for application developers and others considering implementing ICC color management into their products, software, and workflow. ICC DevCon '05 will take place November 7, 2005 at the Chaparral Suites Resort in Scottsdale, AZ.
The core of the conference comprises a sequence of 13 half-hour tutorial sessions, topics to include: “How should applications present user-interface color controls?” “When and how in a workflow should a print job be encoded for print?” “How should device drivers use ICC profiles?” “What are the trade-offs in DeviceLink profile construction?” and others.
In addition, a panel of experts will host an interactive “Truth from the Trenches” panel discussion during lunch, and color-management product vendors will offer a “Show and Tell” of displays and technical demonstrations during an evening network reception.
Conference registration fees are $500 each for the first and second registration, and $375 each for additional additional registration (ICC members receive a discount). (ICC: www.color.org)
