Summary0017674: In pdf export dialog > color tab, setting output to printer still shows rgb profiles when trying to embed custom profile
DescriptionWhen trying to select a color profile to embed to images, apart from the one already embedded, the dropdown is populated with only RGB profiles, even though the output is intended for printer.

Fix (I found the code from the github mirror):
tabpdfoptions.cpp file
in function EnableLPI, the first branch if (a == 1) meaning printer mode, uses ScCore->InputProfiles and not ScCore->InputProfilesCMYK.
this also happens elsewhere too, like in the restoreDefaults function.
Steps To ReproducePDF Export > Color tab, set Ouput Inteded for: Printer and go to Colors or Images section. Check Use Color Profile and Do not use embedded color profiles (for Images). This enables a dropdown with icc profile options.

The behavior here is intented : the "Use profiles" options are intended to preserve RGB elements and associate them with appropriate ICC profiles so that the RIP at printer shop knows how to separate them appropriately to CMYK. So no bug here.
