• If the document has an embedded color profile that does not match the current working

space, select Use the embedded profile. Otherwise, select Assign working space.

profile, it will be converted from the embedded color profile to the document color profile
preserving the color appearance. If it doesn’t have an embedded color profile, Illustrator will
assign the document color profile.
