That may be true in the general case. But the original poster is in
"Support Services, Publishing Services" of a university. It is highly
likely that someone in such an organization that routinely deals with
PDF files either would have one, the other, or both of these tools
or could reasonably justify it. I would not have so-responded if the
poster was a one-person "shop".

Dov,
Those are great solutions if one has many PDFs to convert. But this solution could end up costing the lady several hundred dollars to convert one PDF.

Subject: Re: [PDF] RGB photos
The most commonly used approach for this is to use special
Acrobat plug-ins that have such conversion features for
either individual objects or for pages or the full document.
Two such products come to mind, Enfocus PitStop Professional
and Quite Software's "Quite A Box of Tricks."

We have PDF file created from Pagemaker 6.5. The PDF needs to be greyscale for printing purposes. Most of the images in the PDF are RGB. Is there any easy way to change all the photos in the PDF to grayscale without going back to the customer and making them convert all the photos in the original Pagemaker document?
