Thanks a lot ! I've created my own monitor profile, using lprof. Now, I can see CMYK colors on new documents, but I still have reversed colors on the old ones. I suppose there is a "code" somewhere in the script of the document itself. Can you tell me how to change that ? I tried to save the document after changing the color management settings, but I doesn't seem as simple as that... I can join a file if necessary.
