Q1: answered by retrocity Q2: Most probably not, you have to save as DCS 2.0 format, which creates an .eps file. Imported in something like Quark Xpress or InDesign the pantone names you used should be imported along, dunno about how that works in Freehand. You could ask the people who have to make or use the actual seperations. Q3: If you have enough disc space, I should opt for the DCS. Funny stuff with DCS 2: if you print them on a postscript printer they disappear. Same happens if you have a mixed cmyk and extra channels file and you do a 'save as' eps. You could also add your text in PS. From version 6 the extra colors might be easier too (if you save as the Photoshop pdf format that preserves vectors), but I have no experience with that, right now. Hope this helps, Hoof
