Newbie here, out of my element. I'm a programmer by trade but need to investigate color conversion for an internal client.

I have a file in RGB (I can have it in multiple formats, but more on that later) and I need to convert it to a spot color that has been pre-loaded into a Fiery.

Currently I have a multi-page pdf, which is essentially a black and white vector image. All I need is to convert the Black stokes to a spot color.

I can control the input file types if necessary. I prefer to begin and end with a pdf file, but I can create tiff, jpg, svg, etc. and need a print-ready file with an embedded color profile.

I know how to take a single grayscale tiff and assign a spot color, but I need to process thousands at a time. We've tried Pitstop, but it's seriously slow. What do you all know and use or recommend?
