Checking for specific color ranges in a file

[spenserb]

Dear All,

I am using Acrobat Pro 7 and Pitstop Pro 7. I am trying to set up an action list to check foil stamping die files.

What I am stuck on is checking to be sure that the art in my die file is only 100% K. Anything that is less than 100% will produce a die with pockmarks. I can't have this. The closest I've gotten is using a remap color action, where I specify a range and change the color. When I open the file to set it up for our machines, I will see that the color has changed.

However, with two of the rules I set up, the ranges reset themselves to 0! I can't use it? Can anyone help?

This is a little crude, I think - can anyone think of a better way?

Thank you for your help!

I could suggest several ways with newer versions, but version 7 is before my time I am afraid.
Hopefully one of the developers might have a long memory.
