Hi Joseph,

Yes, it is a pain that the "Convert File Using Device Link" script does not
embed the correct profile, but, come to think of it, how would it know what
the right profile is for that particular device link conversion?

I thought the Applescript knew that info from the target space of my device
link. In your advice above you are saying to assign the same profile I
designated as the target in the device link - so why doesn't the Applescript
do that automatically?

The device link does not contain the necessary informations: It only "knows" how to convert colors from device A to device B -- not from device B to the PCS or vice versa.

There are two steps needed in your script -- something like:

tell application "ColorSyncScripting"
	-- Step 1 - conversion:
	match link myImage through link myDeviceLinkfromAtoB
	-- Step 2 - embedding:
	embed myImage with source myProfileForDeviceB
end tell
