Ah! I've been begging Adobe to create a "Profile" palette. But I'm afraid
they see this as copycatting Quark's Profile palette.
Is that what you had in mind?

Sort of repeating the whole color setting dialog box in the print dialog?
BTW, I think we'll NEVER see the day we see grayscale color management in
InDesign, or, as they say, until the cow comes home :(

That seems sensible, Rich.

OK. This is already defined in Color Settings and explicitely specified in
the Assign Profile dialog, albeit by content type and not by color space.

I'm sure that wouldn't be a problem.

Globally? Or color space by color space?

Those options are already in there but I guess you want to have them in the
Print dialog.

You're getting into Device Linking now. I think Adobe will bring DVL support
in Photoshop first, then deploy it to the other CreativeSuite apps.
