Is there a fast way to select a specific ICC profile when printing in corel?
The print tab seems to only allow me to check or uncheck to use the option under color management,
This is getting cumbersome as I'm wanting to select a different composite output ICC profile when printing to different stocks, so I have to keep going to color management and selecting either plain, coated1, coated2, or heavyweight profile, then print, then back, etc. Because of this corel bug: http://community.coreldraw.com/forums/p/10367/41768.aspx#41768 I can't use the full full xerox docucolor GUI driver which includes colorwise from corel (works fine this way from photoshop or acrobat) which would allow me to select the output icc profile there. As it is, I have to use the ppd file to overcome the corel glitch which otherwise rotates the page involuntarily when printing to the xerox, which works ok except now I find myself somewhat annoyed having to change the color profile in color management every time I want to print to a different stock.
Any quicker way to set this when printing from coreldraw?
I have a custom tool bar I created that contains buttons for the Color Management Settings and the ability to toggle them on and off. In the CM settings, I can specify the profile very quickly by then clicking the Color Management button on my custom tool bar. Grab the profile I want. And then use Calibrate Colors button I have added to the toolbar to preview the output.
Very quick.
Unfortunately no the color management features in Corel are application based and do not easily allow on the fly change. You must change the color profile of the aplication. The other aspect is that Corel does not support changing of CMYK numbers so only RGB to CMYK conversions take place.
there is a big defference bettween Printing by corel & Exporting to TIF format printing using any else Program
I don't know why?

No, if you use the same color profile (ICC profile), it's the same results. Of course, if you use color profile when export but don't use color profile when print, the result will be different. If you choose the same color profile, the result is the same with CorelDRAW and other programs.
The color profile for print must be selected under Tools / Color manager
...and why you and me have similar position in the photo????
