Managing profiles

Color management, at its roots, is profile driven. As you adopt new workflows, acquire new devices, and troubleshoot output, you may need to install new profiles, control which profiles are available, and determine how individual profiles are used throughout a layout. You can perform these tasks using the Profile Manager and Profile Usage features.

The Profile Manager and Profile Usage features are considered advanced color management features. To access the Profile Manager command in the Utilities menu and the Profiles pane of the Usage dialog box, you need to check Enable access to image profiles in the Color Manager pane of the Preferences dialog box (QuarkXPress/Edit menu).
