We currently do some spot colour and create our plates from Scribus by printing-to-file with the colour separations option checked, then cutting out the pages that we need for each colour and imposing and creating PDF's from that. (It's not that complex for the users -- I have the whole thing automated quite nicely; just feed the ps file in here and get four PDF files out over there.)
I've been wondering what it would take to make this process work starting with a PDF file instead of a colour-separated postscript file. Scribus PDF creation doesn't seem to have a colour-separated PDF creation option so I guess it would have to be stripped out afterward with some other tool? -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com
