What it does

Allows you to remap any colors that vary a little from your desired colors back to the desired color. This Action can also remap images to Black or CMYK.

Snap color to color set can be useful to keep tight control over the range of colors in a document.

How to proceed

Define the color set to which the colors in the PDF must be changed as follows:

To remap variants of black to 100% black, select Black.

Note: If you want to remap all colors in your document to black, only select the Black checkbox. Do not add any other color.
To add another color the colors in the document should be remapped to if they are close to it:
1. Click New. A new entry appears in the text box.
2. If you want to use a spot color (optionally), select the Spot color checkbox and type the name of the spot color in the text field. You should define a CMYK equivalent too (see next step). The name of the spot color is shown in the text box.
3. Enter the required values for CMYK (expressed in %) in the fields below the New/Remove button. Your changes are shown in the text box.
From the Map images to list, select the preferred color space for images. You can choose between black, CMYK, and (if applicable) the spot color(s) defined in the previous step.
