Thanks Roy,

I have given is a first try. It might work. I got it to work with 
PDFcreator (freeware). Perhaps Acrobat might do the job as well. I 
have it, but I'm not sure is has the "autosave" option of PDFcreator. 
And I do want to have this transparent, eliminating manual steps 
wherever possible.

What's not clear to me yet is how to deal with color 
management/profiles. When using Photoshop/QTRGui, I manually convert 
from AdobeRGB to Gray-LAB profile and then print it with QTRGui. 

I suppose that in this workflow I should use the RGB-gray-lab profile 
as print profile in Lightroom. Right? Acrobat and PDFcreator each 
have there own options to include profiles, but I expect them to be 
ignored/switched off.
