I've noticed that some "gray" photos in PDFs are in a special "Separation: Black (process)" color. I think they mostly come from Quark PDFs, but I'm not sure. These images cannot be edited in Photoshop (using Acrobat's Touch up Object Tool) due to the dreaded "Unsupported Color Space." Normally a simple conversion using PitStop Pro can turn these Unsupported colors into editable Grays or CMYKs. With "Separation: Black (process)" images, however, the grays darken and contrast dramatically, essentially destroying the image for Photoshop editing purposes. I have tried many different Target ICC profiles and rendering intents with the conversion, but no joy.
I basically just have the tools described above (no Neo or PitStop Extreme here). How do you accomplish this?
