Has anyone ever tried [with any success] to get Window ICM 2.0 to Color
Manage a CMYK Postscript device?
I have built and placed a CMYK v2 printer profile (PM5/Colorful) in the
color management tab of a Xerox Phaser 7700 and selected ICM Handled by Host
System in the driver and Graphics rendering (which is the Saturation Intent
for ICM). Problem is, when I create a postscript file from a PDF file
through the Xerox Driver with the above settings and with all RGB data,
after the file is Distilled with a Leave Color Unchanged setting, the
resulting PDF file is STILL RGB (Pitstop's Imaging Matching Panel) and when
I look into the Postscript stream, using a text editor, I see the RGB data.
Why isn't the color conversion taking place?
For a sanity check, when I use the Advanced tab of Acrobat's Print Dialog
and set the Profile there, thus having Acrobat (ACE) do the conversion, the
file is created as expected - CMYK.
Also, If I instruct Acrobat to use ICM for the conversion, it works as
expected; CMYK.
At this point, it won't hurt to try a v4 profile. But, I would like any
suggestions anyone can offer.
