Batch convert Spot Colors to CMYK

I have a project that I just finished for a client that is made up of 8 vector illustrations. There was a miscomunication and I did them all in Pantone colors. It turns out they were looking for a CMYK file. Is there a way to batch convert the files? I know I can go in and switch them by hand but it is quite an undertaking and would love a quicker route. Thanks.

Depending upon the situation, it might be best to have the printer do the conversion for you as they would (SHOULD) have a much better idea of what the actual CMYK equivalents would be for their particular printing conditions. The 'default' conversion values both in the software and often in the Pantone books usually do not give you the closest match you can get. FWIW
