There can be unfortunate color shifts when opening a CMYK PDF in Photoshop to save as a JPG. (If the file is RGB, it's not a problem.)

Save the PDF as a TIF and then make the JPG in Photoshop for truer colors. Or, eliminate the Photoshop step and export to JPG in Acrobat.

Small type is a bit jaggier with the second approach (no control of JPG quality), but it's simpler for preparing quick comps for review.
