I'm using Acrobat 8 Pro for mac. I'm not sure what the Standard versions can do, but this was the procedure I followed.
First I did a Save As using a different filename to protect my original file and then,
Under Advanced (in the menu bar) > Preflight > select 'compatible with Acrobat 5' > Execute. (leave the 'run without applying fixups' unchecked)
And I just used the Acrobat default settings. There is another place that you can define custom settings, but I didn't do that.
I'm not sure if the Standard editions have the preflight feature.
