Appendix A - ColorSync Manager Backward Compatibility
The ColorSync Manager version 2.1 replaces all earlier versions of the product, including ColorSync 2.0 and ColorSync 1.0. This appendix describes backward compatibility support for ColorSync 1.0 functions, profiles, and CMMs provided by the ColorSync Manager in versions 2.0 and later. Features available only with ColorSync Manager 2.1 are so noted. In this appendix, the name ColorSync Manager is used to mean ColorSync Manager version 2.0 and later. Profile version "2.x" is used to refer to the ICC profile reference format version used by the ColorSync Manager version 2.0 and later.The ColorSync Manager provides backward compatibility with ColorSync 1.0 by supporting the ColorSync 1.0 functions and ColorSync 1.0 profiles.
You should use ColorSync 1.0 functions with ColorSync 1.0 profiles and ColorSync Manager functions with version 2.x profiles. However, there are exceptional cases for which you must use a ColorSync 1.0 profile with the ColorSync Manager.
In addition to describing ColorSync Manager backward compatibility with ColorSync 1.0, this appendix explains how to use the ColorSync Manager for color matching between a ColorSync 1.0 profile and a version 2.x profile.
