I wanted to know what profiles have been used in pictures ina PDF document. I tried to create an Indesign document with various pictures, each with a different profile and rendering intent (by using "convert to profile" command in photoshop). The Indesign document was postscripted using Adobe PDF 9.0 ppd with the option "Let Postscript Printer determine colors option".
I distilled using Distiller 9.0 with "High Quality Print", "PDF-X/1a:2001" and "Press Quality".
In all those PDFs I am unable to identify the profiles. I tried using following methods.
1. Pitstop Pro - when I select any picture I placed, it shows "None" for Profile.
2. Advanced -> Preflight using Newspaper ADs or PDF-X, says output intents missing or US Web uncoated v2.
3. Click a picture using Object tool and right click and "Edit Image" opens the image in photoshop. It shows as untagged 8bpc (in the status bar).
Can anyone with some experience calrify, how one can verify if right profiles are used in pictures coming in a PDF print document? We are printers and we need to be sure of right profiles are used.
With Best Regards
