Actually, Scott, a rendering intent in the print dialog would be very
cumbersome and not all that productive. The way it works, currently, is that
every placed image in InDesign is its own Source in the ProfileToProfile
transform. So, let's take the example of a 96 page magazine with photos
placed with various embedded profiles on every pages: can you imagine what
the Print dialog box would have to look like if it had to present some
interface to the user to allow selecting a rendering intent for each and
every photos placed?!
That's why I feel the present interface is a good compromise. In Photoshop,
it's a one to one relationship (one source and one destination). But in
InDesign, it's a many to one relationship (many sources but one
destination). Bruce Fraser suggested once having the option of more than one
destination profile, to allow for various kgen but, een though that idea had
merit on its own, judging by the time it takes Adobe to implement an Lch
readout option in the Info palette, I don't think we'll ever see that idea
realized.
