How to make a color separate Pantone logo?? HELP!

How to make a color separate Pantone logo?? HELP!

Postby truestory on Mon Oct 12, 2009 1:31 pm

I currently have a VERY simply vector logo in illustrator CS3. The file contains 2 layers: 1 layer consists of 3 shapes that are one Pantone color (296) and the 2nd layer consists of 2 shapes that are another Pantone color (293). As of right now, my document is in CMYK mode, my swatches panel is empty except for the two Pantone color swatches which i chose from color libraries.



I need to send this logo (PDF, EPS, TIFF) to a printer for an envelope job, however, when i save it as it is as a PDF, they tell me they cannot print it in Pantone because when they go to print plates, 4 plates come out (CMYK) and not only 2 plates.



So, how do i save this or what do i do to make this file a TWO plate PDF file for Pantone printing? please help me ASAP as i have been on this problem since last week! ahhh!
