Getting colors right with new technology

Article Abstract:

E-Color's True Internet Color software is designed to allow Web page colors to be displayed uniformly across several Web sites. The software is downloaded by the users, who then answer a few questions about their monitor configuration. Thereafter, when shopping for clothes or furnishings, at Web sites which also use the software, colors are adjusted to compensate for display variations. The Pantone standard seeks to assign each color a unique number. If this number is adopted by manufacturers and retailers, shoppers will be able to search Web sites by clicking on a color chart, and therby linking to the clothes, shoes, or furnishings in the shades they seek.
