1. A method of mitigating change in image appearance due to planned application of a three-dimensional texture to a color image to be printed by an electrophotographic printer, the method comprising:
analyzing digital data of color information for forming an image, the digital data including first information corresponding to a plurality of color layers and second information corresponding to a clear toner layer, the second information sufficient to impart a three-dimensional texture to the image; and
correcting a color profile for the electrophotographic printer based on a measure of a spatial frequency of said second information.
