Hi,
Adobe currently has a default policy of preserving the numbers (ignore
linked profiles) for linked cmyk images with embedded profiles in InDesign
and Illustrator.
I believe this would mean Adobe is assigning the current working cmyk
profile, using that profile for the source and converting to the output
profile when printing or saving and embedding the document profile.
I have seen this debated over and over from a Pre-press and press point of
view but, we are a large, enterprise level design firm. 80-90% of the time
we do not know where the CMYK images are coming from or where they are being
printed. The files we generate are re-purposed for every type of output.
When we do not know the source or destination of the files is there any
reason to ignore the embedded profiles. Should we be using the embedded
profiles in the linked images to soft proof the files?
Thanks,
Gary Scott
