US Patent 10897556 Generating an area coverage vector

Certain examples described herein relate to generating a Neugebauer Primary area coverage (NPac) vector. In certain cases, a first plurality of Neugebauer Primaries (NPs) defined by a first NPac vector is determined, the first plurality of NPs defining a set of characteristics of a printing process. A second NPac vector, defining a second plurality of NPs, is generated based on the set of characteristics and a criterion relating to the printing process.
