A good print shop either does it own color separations or prefers tog
et them in a page layout format such as Pagemaker (now indesign) or Quark.
At least that was the experience I had when I did years ago.
I do most of my own printing nowadays and have no need for the separations.

Doesn't matter that Word only does RGB. People who use Publisher or
Word will print it on an inkjet or laser printer, not an offset
press. Those who think either are suitable for offset cause huge
headaches for printers. In their own offices and homes, they use
inkjets that have the embedded software or PPDs to convert from RGB to CMYK.
You're answering this as a person who knows about printing,
prepress, separations. Most people know nothing about printing
except that they push the print button in the corner of the window
to print, then reach over to retrieve the printed copy. Or they
argue with the print shop that their file is good and what's wrong
with the print shop!!
