Hey guys,
There's as message when I try to export an file I've worked to pdf saying:

"It's not possible to get the output of the document, because it contains more than 27 special colors and it uses opacity. Delete some special colors or convert to scale colors and try again"

I'm sorry for possible mistakes, I just translated from the message in my native language.

Do someone knows how to help?

27 spot colors is the limit in a PDF.

I gues you don't want to print with more than 27 spot colors, so you may want to convert them to process colors.

Actually, thank you.
It's just weird that It doesn't seem to have too much colors on the art, but I'll try to change.

It is easy to change in a CMYK document select all and choose Edit > Edit Colors > Convert to CMYK.

Same in an RGB document but then to RGB.
