The present invention relates to a process for comparing a reference colour profile or the color space value of the reference color profile of an analogue reference pattern with a decorative-element-specific color profile or the color space value of the decorative-element-specific color profile of a digital or analogue decorative element. In the course of the process, a reference color profile is created by reading in and storing measurement data of at least one portion of an analogue reference pattern by means of a hyperspectral area measuring device. According to the invention, a decorative-element-specific color profile is created either from the digital data of a digital decorative element or using hyperspectral area measurement of at least one portion of an analogue decorative element.
