    if you need Pantone specific colors, break the seperate pantone colored elements into different layers, open Window: Swatch Libraries: Pantone (Coated, Uncoated, Matte) depending on the paper stock you're printing on, printing with a few pantone colors is an option, or you can simply print it CMYK (4 color process) and find the Pantone Proccess color values for CMYK in books or possibly on the web..

    i've heard from numerous seasoned print designers that you should always include the font files for your print job and not to create them as outlines, the print quality/control is much better if the job is printed from the font itself instead of vectors, but it all depends on the quality you care about.. but DEFINATELY if you keep it as text, include the file you set it in, they might have a different version of your type, and it's all fucked then..
