Don't worry about the English!
Embedding an ICC Profile depends on how the individual Rip is setup. Not just the model of Rip, but how the user has configured it. Some are set to convert to a particular (usually CMYK) colour space from the colour space of the ICC profile embedded in the image. This may or may not be a good thing! In this case if the Rip "sees" a profile in an image it will assume that the colour space is incorrect, and convert to the colour space which the user set. Generally it is probably best to not embed the ICC profile of images going to a Rip. Many users have little knowledge of the settings in the Rip and anything could happen to your carefully created image! All depends on how the Rip is setup and whether you have control over it!
However if the image is being opened in PhotoShop it is worth doing.
Good luck!
