Hi Karl, and others<br class="">

<div class=""> And where should it be installed? Into the pdfx directory or <br class="">
texmf-dist/tex/generic/icc<br class="">
<br class="">
It should go in texmf-dist/tex/generic/<pkgname>, where <pkgname> is<br class="">
*what gets uploaded to CTAN*. Please do not create it on the fly in TL<br class="">
just because you can :).<br class="">
<br class="">
As for what <pkgname> should be, how about "colorprofile"? Because, are<br class="">
all profiles really "ICC"? In any case, I don't feel strongly about the<br class="">
name.<br class="">

</div>
<div>I fully support this.</div>
<div>The colour profiles should be independent of the pdfx package.</div>
<div>Yes, the package needs to reference them, and include them in documents,</div>
<div>but the package in no sense “owns” them, nor has it created them.</div>
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div>There are many other resources that pdfx makes use of, as does any other </div>
<div>package, which are loaded from elsewhere within the texmf-* hierarchies.</div>
<div>I don’t see this as being any different. </div>
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div>Besides, I don’t see pdfx as (ultimately) being the only package that produces</div>
<div>standards-conforming PDFs requiring a Color Profile, nor that such documents</div>
<div>necessarily be tied to LaTeX production. </div>
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div>So having them under ‘generic’ seems most appropriate, and we shouldn’t</div>
<div>need to have to distribute them with pdfx .</div>
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div>Besides, I always have trouble preparing a complicated package for CTAN, </div>
<div>where the structure or the archive submitted tends to be different from the </div>
<div>TDS structure that I use myself under TeXLive for MacOS. </div>
<div>I’m thinking of the doc/ , font/, source/ subtrees as well as tex/latex/<pkgname> ;</div>
<div>but all are flattened – for use with MikTeX ???</div>
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div>How easy will it be for all TeX systems to implement a new branch like</div>
<div> /tex/generic/colorprofile/ </div>
<div>or /tex/generic/color/public/</div>
<div>or /color/profiles/public/</div>
<div>or whatever we decide is the best naming ?</div>

As for a new top-level directory instead, Mojca, do you have an argument<br class="">
to advance for it? As far as I can see, it would cause churn in many<br class="">
search paths with no offsetting advantage. tex/generic seems simpler to<br class="">
me in every way. --best, karl.<br class="">
