          Abstract

          Any given colour output medium (e.g., a colour  thermal  printer)
          is  typically  unable  to  reproduce all the colours available in
          other media (e.g., a colour CRT).  Even when this is possible, it
          is difficult to determine the coordinate mapping between two dev-
          ices.  Moreover, the exact reproduction of  colour  usually  does
          not accomplish the faithful reproduction of an image.  We discuss
          an approach to this "cross-rendering" problem that was  developed
          jointly  by researchers from the National Research Council of Ca-
          nada, Waterloo and Xerox PARC,  and  describe  further  work  now
          underway in the Computer Graphics Laboratory.
