Hi All,

Does anyone know if/how I can take a grayscale JPG external
figure and assign it to a spot colour channel.

The Color Separation manual gives the following example:

\externalfigure[graphic][split=c]

for assigning such an image to the Cyan channel but I want
to say something like:

\definecolor
        [Spot1]
        [c=1,m=.05,y=0,k=.47,e=PANTONE 308 CV]

\definecolor
        [Spot2]
        [c=.69,m=.07,y=0,k=0,e=PANTONE 298 CV]
.
.

\externalfigure[graphic][split=Spot1]

Is this possible?
this non trivial feature is magically present -)

\definemultitonecolor [combicolor-b] [blue=1] [c=1,m=.38,y=0,k=.64] % force multitone \definemultitonecolor [combicolor-y] [yellow=1] [c=0,m=.28,y=1,k=.06] % force multitone
