Spot colors in photoshop are a little tricky. You have to create Spot Channels via the Channels palette, and place colors into those channels ONLY.

Hello,<br />
<br />
I created a business card in Photoshop with Black and Blue (PMS 2935) and saved it as a PDF so I can have it printed. &nbsp;Well, I received an email back from the business card people with the following request:<br />
<br />
&quot;The pdf file of the business card was in CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow,Black) format.<br />
You want the job printed in PMS 2935 and black. &nbsp;We need art that is spot and black not cmyk.&quot;<br />
<br />
I currently have the business card as .psd file. &nbsp;How do I do spot and black?<br />
