Deleting Color Definitions

Frame 7.0p76 Windows XP I am creating a template for the third version of a catalog that is to be printed in grayscale and one spot color. Since the catalog has involved quite a number of drafts to establish the layout and has gradually evolved over time, it has a goodly number of useless RGB

The extra colors are used in some graphic(s) in the template that uses an 'indexed color' model instead of a full true color palette. This could be a logo on a master page, icons on reference pages, etc. If the output is to be grayscale and one spot color, replace any images with grayscale

I said: We replaced the graphics with 24-bit (true color) PNGs, and then ran a script to delete the RGB colors, but they wouldn't go away. What got rid of them was a MIF wash (save FM file as MIF, open that, and save back to FM). I should have added that, IIRC, the deleting first wasn't even
