Adobe® Acrobat® 7.0 Professional lets you preview color separations on-screen, or soft-proof, so you know exactly how a document will print. For accurate color preview, first specify color management settings. Then, preview one or more separations at a time. You can see how spot colors convert to process colors while you preview separations, and then you can temporarily convert the inks for a single print job by using the Ink Manager in the Print dialog box.
