    Is it really that easy though Mr Male?

    Design a doc in illustrator; send it to the printer but tell him "I want this printed on fancy white paper, and I want this line in spot gold varnish".

    "Ahem. Fucking fix it, my good man".

    Is it that simple?

    make your type the appropriate pantone color. Duplicate it, make another layer, put a note outside the trim area that says that layer is non-printing (you can also set it up to be a non-printing layer in Illus. or InDesign.

    I'd recommend doing it in InDesign if it's printed inside & out.

    Send outlined & un-outlined versions with fonts included. InDesign makes it ridiculously easy to collect fonts: apple-option-shift-f (if you're on a Mac)
