sRGB
Standard red-green-blue (sRGB) is a world-wide color standard
originally developed by HP and Microsoft as a common color
language for monitors, input devices (scanners, digital cameras), and
output devices (printers, plotters). It is the default color space used for
HP products, Microsoft operating systems, the World Wide Web, and
most office software sold today. sRGB is representative of the typical
Windows PC monitor today and the convergence standard for high-
definition television.
Note Factors such as the type of monitor you use and the room’s lighting can
affect the appearance of colors on your screen. For more information,
see Matching colors.
The latest versions of Adobe PhotoShop, CorelDRAW™, Microsoft
Office, and many other applications use sRGB to communicate color.
Most importantly, as the default color space in Microsoft operating
systems, sRGB has gained broad adoption as a means to exchange
color information between applications and devices using a common
definition that assures typical users will experience greatly improved
color matching. sRGB improves your ability to match colors between
the printer, the PC monitor and other input devices (scanner, digital
camera) automatically, without the need to become a color expert.
