That way you're sure that Quark will NOT be able to manage it at all,
colorwise. I don't think that it is the intention here? I would give my
files in TIFF format, at least, giving Quark a fighting chance of color
managing the file -- if that's the intention. As you know, the eps format
ilike the Pharaoh sarcophage, it is meant to seal the data from outside
human intervention and to be passed on to a RIP untouched. In this scenario,
Quark is thus prevented from ever being able to access the data in these
tagged images for the purpose of color management. That is, unless that AD
happens to have iQueue or Autoflow or some kind of 'colormanagment-friendly'
RIP around to which he (or she) can print to and has the capabilities of
managing eps files with embedded profiles.
