Summary0014048: PDF export "screen" removes ICC profile from images - why?
DescriptionTake the attached .sla file to generate the attached pdf files, one with color setting "printer" and one with "screen".

The one with "screen" has the icc colour profile of the image removed. Acrobat only shows "DeviceRGB". Why? Browsers like Firefox and Viewers like Adobe Reader can manage Color Management, so ICC profiled images are useful.

Irritating: when switching from "printer" to "screen" on the color tab, the switch "use color profile" stays activated, only greyed out, see attached screen shot. This looks as if the profile will be embedded - which is not.

RGB ICC profiles usually have file sizes about 3 KB, which will be irrelevant for pdf size.

At this point RGB color managed output is simply not much supported. This is already the subject of issue 0001271.
