If the ColorSync folder does not appear, access the library by clicking on Go to folder in the Go menu in Finder, enter ~/Library and click Go.

Exporting your advert

   • Ensure that Colour Conversion is set to Convert to Destination (Preserve Numbers).
2. If the profile you have installed does not appear here, please ensure that you have put it in the correct folder on your Mac, or right-clicked on the profile and selected install if you are using a PC. Please also make sure that you have restarted your InDesign after installing the profile.
