ok, this seems like it should be easy and is something I should know: converting to PMS spot colors- is there a process or function? Or is it just 'select an object then click on PMS swatch that matches'? I hope not the latter, as it is difficult to color-match when one is color blind... (AI...

yeah 'object> crop area> make' has saved me a lot of headaches and double-checking files in Photoshop once they've output 'There is no LEASH LAW for the IMAGINATION!' myspace.com/erixworx

yeah, I'm color-blind, too: color-blind, perfectionist, graphic artist- thank GOD for PMS#s, etc! When someone asks what my favorite color is, I'll sometimes answer 'anything I can correctly identify' 'There is no LEASH LAW for the IMAGINATION!' myspace.com/erixworx

I used vector artwork almost exclusively in the 7-8 months I ran the laser @ a former employer. Can use bitmap stuff, but he should be able to run stuff from Illy. If his laser is like the one we had, then he's running it thru corel; make sure you send him something corel won't choke on or bitch...
