Color Matching with the Trap Editor
PDF Toolbox has some color-matching functions to ensure that the pages you wish to trap have suitable colors. In this color-matching process, all non-CMYK colors (RGB, Lab or other calibrated colors) are matched to the equivalent colors in the CMYK color space. Spot colors are ignored in this process. This ICC-based color matching is performed automatically before the page data are imported.
The following folders are created during the installation of the PDF Toolbox:
•As of Windows 7: "C:\ProgramData\Heidelberg\PDFToolbox\ICCProfiles"
•To find the files on a Macintosh, go to "...For All Users\Heidelberg\PDFToolbox\ICCProfiles"
This directory contains an ICC profile for CMYK and an ICC profile for RGB. These ICC profiles are used for automatic color matching. The RGB profile is used for RGB graphics and images. The CMYK profile is used as the final output profile.

Note: You can replace these supplied ICC profiles with your own profiles by replacing the relevant files with your own versions. |
The "PDF Toolbox > Spot Colors" tool is a feature that lets you convert unwanted spot colors to process colors or rename them. However, this can only be done as long as the pages are not trapped.

Note: The ideal tool for preparing colors for the PDF Toolbox is the Color Editor. |
