Hello,

I receive PDF files from outside clients, some have Spot colors within the PDF. I wish to do the conversion to process (Standard SWOP) before files go to the printer. I do not embed the profile.
The problem is I get artwork duplicated within the PDF or an artwork shift in the PDF.
This does not happen on all PDF but majority. I do not always have the native files to delete the spot color before postscripting. In turn, I have to contact the designers which can be time consuming.

I am running OSX10.4.8 dual quad
Acrobat Professional 7.01
