Hi

Is it possible to identify (and warn for) a specific ICC profile? In this case sRGB.

Cheers

Pär

Unless it's tagged with an icc-profile there is no way of finding out what RGB profile is used for an image.
CMYK profiles are easier to guesstimate because you have graybalance, UCR settings and total ink coverage, but none of these exist in an RGB file.

Hi again and thanks for your reply Lasse.

Sorry if I wasn't clear enough. My bad.
The images in the pdf´s that I want to check are tagged with sRGB.
I just don't know how to add this to the preflight. Is that possible?

Cheers

There's a "Select by tagged ICC profile" action to select objects tagged by a certain ICC profile, and with a "Log Selection" action you can generate a warning.

That worked perfectly.

Thank you.
