The page layout application is not built for color management (Create,

What is used as source is not always obvious. For example TIFFany
doesn't have any obvious color controls for color management in it, but
they are using the display profile as the source profile and Default
CMYK from the ColorSync panel as destination for RGB to CMYK
conversions, and vice versa for CMYK to RGB conversions. I'm not sure
what Stone is doing. But when it comes to printing, you will need to
use print driver color management and hope the source space is being
defined by either the application, or the operating system, correctly.
Printer driver level color management in OS X is control in both the
driver and by the ColorSync Utility. In the driver, choose ColorSync,
and in the ColorSync Utility you choose the profile to be used.
Unfortunately we've lost rendering intent control in Mac OS X printer
drivers for some reason, so we have to depend on the default rendering
intent specified in the printer's profile.
Both of my Canon and Epson scanner profiles are listed in ColorSync
Utility: Profiles, but neither one of them is listed as 'registered'
... even though they are connected to the system. Perhaps there is a
code problem on the OS side? Time will tell I suppose.
Well - scanning support on OS X is still behind maturity-wise, so
that's probably the most likely issue.
