We need a CMYK (not grayscale) with all colors moved to the Black channel. Can PitStop do this?

I've been looking for a way to choose everything but die line color. Then with this chosen, delete it. Leaving only the die line. For us, this would be a great Action.

We have a few PDFs that the PitStop Crop Marks aren't positioning correctly. The PDF is coming in with the Art Box the same size as the Trim Box. The Bleed Box and Media Box are 1/8" larger. The Crop Marks are placing on the Trim Box but are longer the 1/8" to Bleed/Media Box and are...

When Illustrator vector art with 100% Black only is placed in InDesign. When InDesign Separations are turned on, the Black previews as 4-color Black. When outputting a PDF, the PDF is correct. When we turn off Color Management in InDesign the Black previews correctly. Illustrator art is CMYK...

We're using a PitStop preflight that converts RGB to CMYK. Color management is turned off. I think we may be able to get a better conversion if we use Color Management and set the Source RGB to Adobe 1998 RGB. But I don't want to change any of the CMYK profiles. Using a generic conversion for...

We have many pages with one spot orange character that needs to change to bold. There is other type that is same size and font, but black, so need to search for it by font size and color then change to bold. I'm having a hard time finding a way to do this with PitStop.

I've created a new collating mark for a Perfect Bound layout. When I place it on the layout, Preps says it's there by turning the mark blue, but I can't find it. I've tried turning off everything but marks and it's still no where to be found. Even reduced to see the pasteboard area. Nothing.

Our workspace is GRACoL2006. PDF with images come out of InDesign with no Profile, Refine in Prinergy with No Profile, Plate with a plate curve that is G7 certified. Question is, since we don't assign or convert to a profile throughout the workflow, the original image information is passed...

We just upgrade to Acrobat XI. They've included an Advanced Search but I'm not seeing the search all open documents. Is it hiding somewhere?

GRACoL2006 isn't showing our Blacks correctly. One image is Black Illustrator lines. One is Photoshop Tif. Both have a Black only line. With our workspace at GRACoL2006 these lines are showing 4-color black. But the original files have Black only. Am I missing a setting somewhere? Thanks.

We have our workspace set in Bridge to GRACoL2006. Several images that are created with only Black strokes are showing as 4-color strokes in Acrobat Output Preview. But, when using the eye dropper they read as only Black. Why is it this way? If we want it to show our press conditions (G7...

Is there a way to get the Output Preview to stay whatever the workspace is? Instead of changing to the profile attached to the PDF?

Our current workflow has exported PDFs from InDesign - Output - No Color Conversion and Do Not Include Profiles. (Our Workspace is GRACoL2006_Coated1v2.icc.) This PDF goes to Prinergy which has Color Convert turned off. How does Prinergy know how to process this file and what colorspace to...

In Acrobat Preferences / Color Management / settings are using GRACoL2006. PDFs we are opening have been exported from InDesign with GRACoL2006 Destination Profile attached. I have 2 Macs that are defaulting to Adobe 1998 RGB even with Preference set to GRACoL2006. The rest are honoring the...

InDesign export to PDF the color is converted to Destination - Coated GRACoL2006 (Adobe version). Using the same Destination Profile in Prinergy, when the same file refines it looks more like USWebCoated than GRACoL. I expected to get the same result. Attached are screenshots of Prinergy...

One of the test images I've been using for testing shows a great deal of difference between GRACoL2006 and GRACoL2013. Attached are the Cyan channel screen captures of each profile (left is GRACoL2006, right is GRACoL2013). Quote from IDEAlliance - "GRACoL 2013 is almost identical to GRACoL 2006".

This question makes more sense than the previous one . . . When comparing some images saved as SheetfedCoated SWOP and GRACoL2006, the difference is big. On some images I've seen GRACoL2006 move most of the Cyan to the Black channel. Is there a profile that is somewhere in between the two...

When comparing some images saved as USWebCoated SWOP and GRACoL2006, the difference is big. I've seen GRACoL2006 move most of the Cyan to the Black channel. Is there a profile that is somewhere in between the two? That moves some of the Cyan to the Black channel, but not quite as drastically as...

Is there a formula that decides how GRACoL separates and image? I've tried to get a feel for it by processing several images and I do notice that it usually takes some of the color and moves it to the Black separation. But what is it looking at and how does it determine what to do?
