The gamut compression procedure specified in the CCC is called when an attempt to convert a color specification from XcmsCIEXYZ to a device-dependent format (typically XcmsRGBi) results in a color that lies outside the screen's color gamut. If the gamut compression procedure requires client data, this data is passed via the gamut compression client data in the CCC.
During color specification conversion between device-independent and device-dependent color spaces, if a white point adjustment procedure is specified in the CCC, it is triggered when the Client White Point and Screen White Point differ. If required, the client data is obtained from the CCC.
