Open ICC File

An ICC extension file takes a color profile format standardized by the International Color Consortium (ICC).

About the International Color Consortium

The International Color Consortium was established in 1993 with the goal of establishing and maintaining an open color management system for seamless, pixel-free color across all devices, operating systems, and documents.

The ICC color profile format was developed to help users match the colors on a computer screen to the colors in printed and scanned documents.

The ICC file contains color settings for image editing programs, and also transmits information between software and peripheral devices, including monitors, printers, and scanners, being as reliable as possible.

Import and open an ICC file

ICC files can be imported by various image editing programs, such as Adobe Photoshop and CorelDRAW.

They can also be opened with Microsoft's Color Control Panel on Windows and Apple's ColorSync utility on macOS.
