So, when converting the Prc from earlier PF products (like the Brightness Seeker from Elves of Golarian or the Liberator from Second Darkness) do you drop the skill rank requirements by 3 because of the PF skill level system (you no longer get 4x at first level and can only take 1 rank/skill/level)?
Otherwise, to become a Brightness Seeker (req 8 ranks Knowledge) you would need to be L8 instead of L5....

I can't remember where it is written, but this has been covered. I believe you subtract 3 from the prereq skill ranks. I think it might be in the PFRPG conversion guide

Yes, you would.

• Make sure to check the prestige class requirements (and the rest of the class) for any skills that have been altered or removed from the game and adjust them accordingly. In addition, the skill rank requirements should be equal to the 3.5 requirements – 3 (minimum 1 rank). Note that some of the core prestige classes do not follow this formula exactly and you should consider these requirements carefully.
• Prestige classes should give few class skills, since many of these will be redundant from the class skills garnered by the class taken to qualify for the prestige class. Focus any class skills on the core concept of the class and leave the rest out.

Yes, if it is a class skill.
If it is not a class skill Double the ranks and then subtract 3. So for example Tumble 5 for a class without tumble would require 7 ranks (5X2)-3. With the old system they could get 5 cross ranks skill at level 7.
