Why IGNORE !
Use it to soft proof through your CMYK profile, if it looks different when you assign YOUR profile you need to CONVERT to your profile.
>>I think a bigger problem is printers rather not waste time helping you setup a working color management because theirs' is already working. Besides, they can always charge you for the extra "prep" work.
Not a true statment, most good printers will help you set up eveything
and show you how to use it....we do it all the time !
I send out my profiles to anyone who needs them, I will send instructions on how to set up photoshop and even go as far as calibrating thier monitors if its a good customer.
Also Id rather make things look good the first time rather than charge a customer for another round of proofs for not touching thier files in the first place.
I soft proof everything and then decide if I need to convert or leave alone.
If I get files without profiles I will most likely assign something that looks good and then convert to my profiles. I want ALL of my files to have the same separation settings going to press.
Just my $.02
