    Hi everybody

    When I export a PDF/X-1a file from Indesign with color conversion to FOGRA39 it automatically fills in the “output intent profile name” with the same profile: FOGRA39. So that is what I want.

    When I then check the pdf in Acrobat is says:

    OutputIntent:
    Identifier: CGATS TR 001
    Info: Coated FOGRA39 (ISO 12647-2:2004)

    Why is the Identifier: CGATS TR 001?

    Is this a know bug or does it make sense? Is this something I need to worry about?

    https://www.color.org/IPA_2003-11_PDFX.pdf. Here you can find some info about it.

    Thanks for the link Gert

    Basically I just want to know if it is a contradiction that the OutputIntent in the pdf says:

    Identifier: CGATS TR 001
    Info: Coated FOGRA39 (ISO 12647-2:2004)

    Would it not make more sense if both of the “identifier” and “info” were saying Coated FOGRA39 since that is the Output Intent I specified when creating the pdf in InDesign. Or am I missing something

    Thanks

    After some looking around, I cannot find another solution than, if you make a pdf/x4 it’s correct. The setting read “fogra39”.
    For some reason (default setting by ADobe because they are US based??) in pdf/x1 it’s always CGATS.

    Hi Gert

    Thank you very much

    I guess I just leave it with that.

    Have a nice day.
