## Discussion

An ICC profile stream defining the transformation from the PDF document’s source colors to output device colorants. This key is required if the value of [`kCGPDFXOutputConditionIdentifier`](/documentation/CoreGraphics/kCGPDFXOutputConditionIdentifier) does not specify a standard production condition. It is optional otherwise. If present, the value of this key must be an ICC-based color space specified as a `CGColorSpace` object.
