That also means, that e.g. in InDesign, were you have the
possibility to set a rendering intent for pictures and plain colors
separately, it never will work satisfaction.
You got the way Indesign works wrong.
You set a default intent for placed raster objects ('Images'),
regardless of the color model of the placed raster object (Lab, RGB,
CMYK or Gray).
You then click the raster object, open the Image Color Settings
window, and enable or disable color management for that object, and
toggle the rendering intent. If the object has an embedded ICC
profile, the name of the profile is correctly shown.
The limitation of InDesign 1.5.2 is that it uses the same intent
going into the Separations profile as going out of it. Or in other
words it works the same as Pshop 5 and Pshop 55.
The workaround is to place only tagged CMYK, set the default intent
for raster objects to relative colorimetric, and proof to the
'Composite' printer.
I tested this with the FOGRA CMYK Medienkeil and the HP5KPS RIP set
correctly to non-emulation. The result was a correct proofing
conversion.
Hope this helps.
