Hi,

These strings are from the new color profiles package. Personally, I do not think \
they can be separated into docs in the common sense. The notes were copied from the \
original work by Elle Stone. The only way to make them easier to translate is to \
shorten them (just my 2 cents).

The message is cc-ed to calligra-devel for further consideration.

Best regards,
Yuri
