Say I work in CMYK, embed the profile in the PDF and send off to the printers. Say it has a TIC of 330%...
Hopefully, the printer will use my profile to print.Do they ever do that?
They 'strip' my profile and use their own, say a 'similar' 330% TIC profile.Everything should be okay, then?
They 'strip' my profile and use a profile with say 300% TIC.Does that put too much ink on the print?
They 'strip' my profile and use a profile with say 400% TIC.Now my blacks print lighter?
They don't 'strip' my profile and use their own profile on top of it.Is that possible?
If the profile is 'stripped' from my PDF, what does that mean in fact? Especially in terms of the TIC?
?

Thanks David, you've given me a manual to work with! Great to have a clear way through.
What I've given you is solid broad strokes, basically graphics 100 not 101. I forgot you're not from the States and you might get the reference, an entry level class at what you call University is called 101 what you got from me would have been the first hour of the introductory.
You have the email and number if you need help.
Thanks again, David! I'll keep you informed how things are going.
