Custom Linear DCP Profile Sync Issues between Lr Classic and Adobe Cloud (Web/Mobile)

Problem Description: I am experiencing a consistent rendering failure when syncing photos that use a custom Canon linear profile (.dcp) from Lightroom Classic to the Adobe Cloud ecosystem (Lightroom Desktop, Web, and Mobile).

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Import and apply a custom linear profile (.dcp) to a photo in Lightroom Classic. The image renders correctly.

  2. Sync the collection to Adobe Cloud.

  3. View the image on Lightroom Web or Lightroom (Cloud version): The profile is not applied to the initial preview, and the image appears incorrectly developed (flat/dark).

Manual Workaround: I have to manually open each image in "Edit" mode within Lr Web or Lr Cloud to "force" the profile to load. Only then does the image update and display the correct rendering.

Major Impact:

  • Adobe Portfolio: Photos synced via the Cloud appear incorrectly developed on my website because the "forced" rendering hasn't been triggered manually in the Cloud.

  • Workflow: It is impossible to manually open hundreds of photos one by one to trigger the correct profile display.

Request: Could you please fix the Cloud rendering engine so that imported custom profiles are recognized and applied automatically upon synchronization, without requiring manual per-image editing?

Many thanks
