Now it is starting to use PDF 2.0 in the market. It is understood that the PDF 2.0 can be embedded in the CxF color file. I would like to ask the experts whether Acrobat can view and modify the CxF in PDF. If it can, how do you do it? If not, whice one software can I do?

Although it will eventually, Acrobat does not currently support PDF 2.0. Specifically, Acrobat does not provide any mechanisms for inserting or making use of such CxF profiles. In fact, at this point there are no authoring or layout applications that can embed CxF profiles into PDF files in the manner prescribed by the ISO 32000-2 PDF 2.0 specification. (There are some applications and specialized plug-ins for authoring and layout applications which can insert CxF into PDF 1.x files and others that can make use of same - the CxF profiles are ignored by Acrobat and most RIPs at this time!)
