It's been a while since I worked in printing support and had to deal 
with PostScript/PDF/ghostscript stuff, but I'd wager a guess that 
/prepress is for professional printing, and "color preserving" in that 
context probably means that ghostscript should not attempt to apply a 
color profile when processing the file, as professional printing 
equipment usually has its own methods of color calibration.

Does that sound like it makes sense? ;-)
