Yes, it's cool, it's cool... I think some of us have started taking for granted that most of your code examples are cool...

I was going to comment, just wanted to figure out the next question.

Is it true that the only information that you're getting from the Illustrator file are the CMYK values for a given spot color? I guess I thought there was something more to spot colors than that. I take it the CMYK equivalent (or near equivalent) is needed in order for InDesign to render the color, but on the printer's end they just need to know the correct name?
