you like make a soft proof, which means emulating on the screen how the image

Select View > Proof Setup > Custom. Use the following information to select
options in the Proof Setup window.

Profile: choose the profile based on the printer model and paper type you
intend to use.

Preserve Color Numbers: this checkbox tells the application how to
simulate the document's appearance without converting colors from the
Document Space to the Proof Profile Space. It simulates the color shifts that
may occur when the document's color values are interpreted using the Proof
Profile instead of the Document Profile. This option is not recommended.

Intent: this menu allows you to choose a rendering intent for the conversion
from document space to simulation space, letting you preview the effects of
different renderings. See “How do I set the rendering intent?” on page 140.
