Dear Lou, The inital release of Acrobat Pro X (version 10.0.0) had problems with regard to soft proofing a PDF file, even in you had all the Preferences/Color Management settings correct on a properly calibrated/profiled display. What you need to do is to update it to its latest version, which is 10.1.13. Following the update it should do a decent simulation of the printed image. Let's assume that you receive a print ready PDF file from your premedia house prepared in a FOGRA39L dataset based CMYK colorspace, such as ISO Coated v2 (ECI), and that you have a display calibrated/profiled to a white point in the 5800ºK to 6000ºK range, a gamma of 2.2 and a luminance level of 100 nits (cd/sqm). The monitor white is a good simulation of the paper white under D50 illuminant and the color image a is good representation of the printed image. Adobe does a sloppy work when simulating Paper Color and Black Ink, hence we do keep these functions switched off. Just make sure that the CMYK colorpace set in the Preferences/Color Management and the Simulation Profile in the Output Preview (if open) are the same that is used by the premedia company when constructing the PDF file.
