Print notes in color and the document in black and white

Hello, I ask you if it is possible to print a document in black and white, but print in color the notes applied to the document...notes intended as all the annotations that can be made with the program such as stamps, lines, polygons etc.
Greetings

Myself, I do not immediately see a possible solution via the Print-dialog-box.

But, what you can do, is use the "Convert Colors" feature in the Convert-ribbon.

Use the Convert Command > Convert to Profile > Black & White (or Gray Gamma 2.2)
It will only change the color of the base content. The colors of the comments will remain.

!! TAKE CARE TO NOT SAVE YOUR PDF WHEN COLORS HAVE BEEN CHANGED. !!
So, you can best make a copy of the PDF and use that copy for trying my proposition.

Kind regards.
