Mike,
If I am in the shoes of a large format printer and if a client sends in a file that's tagged as "SWOP", then I can be 100% sure, without the shadow of a doubt, that this client is clueless about color. Whatever output the client gets from that point on is academic. The client is presented with the bill along with its output and that's the end of the story. Next!
It's not a matter of "honoring" embedded profiles, it's a matter of technical ignorance.
How can you reproduce anything that you have no clue about?
/ Roger

I didn't do it.
If a client sends a file that's SWOP -- and I can tell you that if they send CMYK files to large format printers they invariably are -- what would you do with it?
You can't make it something other than what it is. All you can do is reproduce it correctly.
And that's all that CMYK default setting is for. It has no other purpose.
Mike
