Your help would be greatly appreciated, as I’m struggling to find the answer.

 

Can you tell me the correct color settings I require.

 

I wish to print booklet to a PDF file so I can print this on my epson p800 inkjet printer.

Using a custom paper icc profile I use for this particular paper.

 

All of the images are in sRGB IEC61966-2.1, any graphics have been made in Illustrator and bought into Indesign, and any text & lettering has been created within indesign itself.

 

I cannot find what output settings I should use when producing the PDF, 

 

By the way I’m using a MacBook pro , so the PDF is via a postscript file and distiller.

If you have a proper color profile for the Epson you'll want to use it when you print.

Export a proper PDF/x-4 and use Acrobat's booklet feature to print it.
