Unfortunately, it would seem that only two applications, namely
Photoshop and Lightroom, have perfectly working RGB print paths at
this time (a few monts ago). This is what I was told, at an ICC
meeting.
So, your mileage with profiles using Preview, and printing targets
with Preview may vary ... depending on the day of the week, and the
weather over in Cupertino.
