I understand if you have a CMYK color and Framemaker, unless the CMYK is in an EPS file, the CMYK will be converted to RGB. I understand this is true for TIFFs and other graphics formats, as well as colors applied in FrameMaker itself because FrameMaker creates PostScript using the Windows GDI. 

So, let's say I want blue headings from FrameMaker for Windows to be printed from a PDF sent to press. What is the best way? 

Can I create the blue as a spot color, and create separations in FrameMaker, and print the separations to PDF? 

Should I create the blue as CMYK? 

Or, is there a better route? 

Cheers, 

Sean
