CMYK images match document profile
This check flags up any CMYK images with an embedded colour profile that do not match the InDesign document profile.
When using CMYK images in a colour-managed workflow, images should either have matching colour profiles embedded or have no profiles embedded and so assume the colour profile of the document they are placed into.

You can fix this problem by:
- Changing the document profile to match the embedded profiles in placed images.
- Changing the image embedded profiles to match the document profile.
- Using RGB images rather than CMYK (if your workflow allows it).
Clicking the ‘Open details in a text file’ button opens a report that also includes the mismatching profile used on each image.
