Another approach is just leave the PDF file in RGB.
Contrary to bubbameisers and other urban legends, there
is absolutely nothing wrong with RGB, but rather with
prepress service (alleged) professionals who claim that
you cannot properly print RGB PDF. Bull! Using the "Advanced"
function of Acrobat's print menu, one can EASILY map Microsoft's
flavour of RGB (actually normally sRGB by default) to SWOP CMYK.
It is the same exact code used in Photoshop or any other Adobe
tools for conversion upstream.
