In particular, color management attempts to enable color consistency across media and throughout a color-managed workflow. Linux color management has the same goal as the color management systems (CMS) for other operating systems: to achieve the best possible color reproduction throughout an imaging workflow from its source (camera, video, scanner, etc.), through imaging software ( Digikam, darktable, RawTherapee, GIMP, Krita, Scribus, etc.), and finally onto an output medium ( monitor, video projector, printer, etc.).
