appearance of colors is defined by the application’s working space profiles, and you can no longer embed a profile in
the document.

Assign Current Working Space [working space]

Assigns the working space profile to the document.

Assign Profile

Lets you select a different profile. The application assigns the new profile to the document without

converting colors to the profile space. This may dramatically change the appearance of the colors as displayed on
your monitor.

Choose a rendering intent for each type of graphic in your document. For each graphic type, you can choose one

of the four standard intents, or the Use Color Settings Intent, which uses the rendering intent currently specified in
the Color Settings dialog box. For more information on rendering intents, search in Help.

The graphic types include the following:

Solid Color Intent

Sets the rendering intent for all vector art (solid areas of color) in InDesign native objects.

Default Image Intent

Sets the default rendering intent for bitmap images placed in InDesign. You can still override

this setting on an image-by-image basis.

After-Blending Intent

Sets the rendering intent to the proofing or final color space for colors that result from trans-

parency interactions on the page. Use this option when your document includes transparent objects.

To preview the effects of the new profile assignment in the document, select Preview, and then click OK.
