Acrobat DC PDF file has a difference spot color name than the same PDF imported into Illustrator
- A production file was created in Illustrator CC 2017 (21.1.0) Windows 7 and saved as a PDF for print.
- The file needed editing and when opened again in CC 2018 (22.1.0) on Windows 10, one of the spot color names in illustrator is different from the PDF file.
- File-open repeats the issue, but File- Place imports the correct spot color name.
- Not only did the spot color name change but the text underneath a color call out, we do use Tortoise SVN software which could be part of the issue. Why would illustrator read that file differently than Acrobat DC?
