normally, I guess, but of course Quark has no <effective> controls to
make that distinction.

well, actually, black type is not normally separated to any other than
the black plate for printing on a press because of registration issues.
That's one reason why designers tend to want/need a decent rip, since
that deals with the different postscript info properly.

well, it's an answer but if it were a designer asking I'd say he needs
to know that any type will be rasterised and printed 4 or 6 col. Same
with any type from Photoshop AFAIK. For a photographer I'm sure it'll
be fine.
If he can get it to work [he seemed to be having trouble].

I'm not sure why you're writing that?
his post was titled <<Quark Colour Management>>?
from Andy's original post or 03/01/03:
<<I have trouble getting the right colours, tones, contrast when I
print out on my epson. the epson is printing my PS files
perfectly-ish... Is there a colour management trick I have to go
through in quark - correct colours for print or something? the finished
product looks fine on screen, but when I come to print the image is
dark and not at all as I had hoped...>>
