How do you find out if an Acrobat document has a embedded profile? 


Just to clarify, each *element* in a PDF can have a profile.

Enfocus' Pit Stop plug-in (http://www.enfocus.com) has been a longtime favorite for PDF professionals. Pit Stop lets you right click on an image and get this information or, even better, convert it to the destination of your choice. It's not cheap but they do have a demo you can play with.

You can do it without the plug-in but it's messy. Select an image with the Touchup Object Tool (from the Advanced Editing tools found only in Acrobat Pro), right click, choose "edit image..." to open the image in Photoshop and determine the profile there. There are not-so-nice implications if you want to make changes to layered files and files with transparency.

Acrobat Pro's Advanced Preflighting tool can also show you the color spaces of placed images but it's not very specific and that isn't a good way to go about finding this kind of information.

I don't have Acrobat 8 Pro yet so I can't say if there are any improvements with it in this regard.
