We propose replacement colourmaps that allow a designer to check the colours seen by protanopes and deuteranopes. Construction of the colourmaps is based on the LMS specification of the primaries of a standard video monitor and has been carried out for 256 colours, including 216 colours that are common to many graphics applications of MS Windows and Macintosh computing environments. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
