RemoveEmbeddedICCHandlers

This page applies to Harlequin v13.1r0 and later; both Harlequin Core and Harlequin MultiRIP

HqnImportICC has a procedure called /RemoveEmbeddedICCHandlers that allows ICC profiles in PostScript language files to be ignored when color management is enabled, and the job settings are being used.

When Photoshop images are saved to EPS with profiles included, the input profile from Photoshop is always included, which a job may not want to actually have applied when color managing. The procedure /RemoveEmbeddedICCHandlers prevents ICC profiles embedded in EPS files from being detected and used when color management is enabled, and the RIP is not overriding color management in the job. That is, profile data delimited by %%BeginICCProfile: and %%EndICCProfile : comments in the EPS file. The procedure does not affect detecting ICC profiles embedded in JPEG and TIFF files.

The following PostScript Language can be used as page feature to provide this functionality:

/HqnImportICC /ProcSet findresource /RemoveEmbeddedICCHandlers get exec

No other part of this procset is documented and is subject to change.
