is invoked the correct way. In addition, I had a quick look at the docs for GhostScript and I couldn't even find a switch to use to specify an output ICC profilebut I may have missed something.
From the PDF 1.7 spec:
Note: PDF has no equivalent of the PostScript color rendering dictionary. The means by which a device profile is associated with a consumer application’s output device are implementation-dependent and cannot be specified in a PDF file. Typically, this is done through a color management system (CMS) that is provided by the operating system. Beginning with PDF 1.4, a PDF document can also specify one or more output intents providing possible profiles that might be used to process the document (see Section 10.10.4, “Output Intents”).
So I guess Ghostscript is lacking an obvious way of specifying the output profile. Graeme Gill.
