Comments.Text: Are you using GD2 or Imagick on your server? GD2 has absolutely no support for color profiles. Imagick has, so unless you've already tried it, check if that helps. But I guess the question is still, whether Craft preserves it or not.

Comments.Text: Imagick is installed and Craft uses it. EXIF data etc. is preserved but the ICC is not. Check this because I guessed Craft transform uses Imagick's `stripImage()` method, that does not only remove EXIF but also the ICC.

  ~~Not currently, but this is already on our list.~~
  
  The image processing library we're using only recently (within the last 6 months or so) added ICC profile support.
  
  **Update:**
  
  Great news for all photographers and image lovers! Things changed with Craft 2.3, ICC profiles are now preserved if Imagick is installed and used for the transformation.
