PDF export problem with colour conversion

Hello everyone,

I have issues with the colour settings during the export of PDFX-files from indesign. In the export window under the feature Output > Colour > Colour Conversion there should be the option Convert to Destination (Preserve Numbers).  In my case this option isn't available anymore. Only the options Colour Conversation and Convert to Destination are available, thought the second one should offer me the possibilty to change the colour profile under Output Intent Profile Name, this option also isn't available anymore. Here is a screenshot that will show you the problem (sorry the program language settings are german, but I tried to explain it with the english terms):

The thing is, that there wasn't any changes during the last days that would explain this bug. If anyone could help me with this problem, I would be very grateful!

Kind regards

That would happen if you have your Color Settings set to Emulate InDesign 2.0 CMS Off.

Thank you very much, that was indeed the solution for this problem. I don't know how this could happen, because I didn't changed anything in the settings, at least not intentionally...
