If you want to see if a browser handles profiles properly go to
Www.color.org
Find the link on the right side of the page "Is your system v4 ready?"
On that page there are pdf and html pages that will tell you how the browser
is working. If you want a real kick, try printing each page to your
favorite printer.....
