PDF preset: color output settings aren't being applied V21.0.2
My company has been using the same PDF preset for a couple of years now. Since updating to V21.0.2, the color output settings specified in the preset are not being applied. I tried creating a new preset and the color output settings are still the default, instead of the very specific color settings I need applied for the print vendor we send files to.

Hi Todd,
Could you share more details about the PDF Preset? What were the Color Output settings that are no longer getting applied in 21.0.2, can you show us some screengrabs?
If possible, share the .joboptions file.

Indeed there seems to be something wrong.
My CMS settings define "PSO Coated v3".
A new document is set to "Coated FOGRA39".
That should not be FOGRA39, it should tolerate my CMS setting and set PSO Coated V3 as the profile.
If i change the profile, InDesign tells me, that FOGRA39 is my working color space – which is not true.During the export, the correct colour profile is used.
Test with a german InDesign 2026.0.2 on a german macOS 15.7.2.

This problem recurs with every major InDesign update. I have reported on this here several times in recent years. I have Fogra 39 profile for cmyk in Color settings. But when create new document, not fogra is used, but US web coated.... Hmm, so i manually set fogra 39 for my new document. But still, on export, US web coated is used as destination profile.
