I am a graphic designer with a G4 AGP Graphics, on OS 10.4. I have Quark 5.0 (runs in classic), and recently upgraded to Acrobat 7. I frequently create high res PDFs of ads to send to publications. Since I upgraded to 7, when I create a ps file from Quark, I do not have the option to output as spot color, only composite cmyk. I need this certain PDF to remain 2 color, not convert to 4 color! How do I get the option back?

If I choose greyscale as the output, it keeps the eps images the spot color, but any text that was the spot color in the document is converted to greyscale.

Thanks for any help.
