Well, converting the entire artwork to PNG (bitmap format) is not a solution. It's a workaround. You want your vectors preserved as much as possible. Therefore you need true transparency flatening. Currently, the only way to do that, that I know of, is using acroread. The CMYK thing should be solved, as others have explained, by a. using color-managed workflow b. using colors that are in CMYK gamut The conversation was rather long, so I just skimmed over the details, but I think others have it covered. :D
