I don't understand everything, and my printer stops after page 14 of ther docs, but the capabilities of this "simple" solution are fascinating: It can even handle spot colors! That is, it can even filter this colors out of RGB or CMYK bitmap pictures! This can't be done with most professional software like Photoshop or QuarkXPress! Almighty Hans, could you please have a look at CTAN:support/aurora and integrate this nice thingy with texexec? (I trust in you, that you are able to improve the code...)
