[poppler] lcms usage in poppler

[Leonard Rosenthol]

The files from the GWG are PDF/X compliant.  That means that to correctly
display them you need to follow the rules for PDF/X - NOT JUST standard
PDF.   So until you implement all of the PDF/X "conforming reader"
requirements (and only for PDF/X files, of course), you will never render
them 100% correctly.
