Unfortunately I'm not certain what you're asking here - if you're producing designs to be printed then I recommend contacting the printer to see which colour profile they require to be used - as this will differ between print houses and there is no one 'correct' answer for which to use.

I hope this helps!

The "how to select" workflow for choosing a profile in the "Document Setup..." or "Export..." dialog window is like any other pull-down menu in Affinity: Move the cursor on the menu entry, e.g. the desired profile, and release the mouse button to make the accordingly highlighted entry becoming selected + used.

To select a certain CYMK Color Profile you need to have set the Color Format (document) or Color Space (Export) to CMYK first.
