    Acrobat Pro / Edit Object / Properties / Color Conversion

    Yes, it is an ICC profile and should be in your "profiles" folder. On my Mac the path is: /Library/ColorSync/Profiles The profile is called "Black & White.icc" My Acrobat Pro recognizes this profile and it shows up in the list for color conversion...best of luck! :)

    Sujet Problem in Signa

    We're still using version 2 so not sure if this will help you but, but there is a check box at the bottom left corner of the "printing plates" section of the wizard. You can un-check it and then set an offset value. Best of luck!

    Confused about getting Acrobat to compress PDFs

    Sorry to disagree with those who claim that PDF Optimizer is the way to go, but do this test yourself and make up your own mind which works best for you. I took a 92mb trapped pdf with active transparency and used PDF optimizer set at 72 dpi and used every other option available to get a...

    Confused about getting Acrobat to compress PDFs

    Just create your multi page PDF, run "reduce file size", and then save as a postscript file which you then drop in Distiller using the smallest file size preset. This can really reduce your file size without beating up the file too badly.
