[Patentcenter] converting colors in PDF Xchange editor

[Dan Feigelson]

I have a 371 application that's received an allowance but now the PTO is
hassling us about the drawings.  The difficulty is that the original
figures I received from the client were color images, and some of the
colors did not convert well to b/w. We dealt with this during the
international phase, and the USPTO had no problem re-publishing the
application itself, but, surprise, some genius in publications now thinks
he knows better than the examiner.

Between the PCT filing and now I bought a copy of PDF X-Change Editor, and
I'd like to use it to convert the light blue lines in some of the drawings
(which are almost invisible if I physically print the drawings in b/w on
paper or if I print in Cutepdf using greyscale) to black, but I don't
understand what their help page says (https://help.pdf-xchange.com/pdfxe9/).

If someone can help me out (can be directly, not in the group), I would be
most appreciative.

Dan
