I'm attempting to desing a color management workflow for VectorWorks. As VectorWorks has no ability to convert to an ICC printer profile at output, I must be able to output color consistent files from VectorWorks and give them an ICC profile that accurately describes the color space that they were created in.
First of all, my assumption is that the best color space to describe VectorWorks colors is sRGB. Building on that assumption the workflow would be to create a PDF with the embedded profile of sRGB and using Acrobat for final output to a color managed printer.
I have noticed though, a wide variance in colors that vectorworks will output to a printer, and I'm not sure whether that variance also carries over to PDF creation.
I'm looking for an idea of what variables I'm dealing with in the VectorWorks software that would affect PDF creation.
