1 color with b/w
David Artman:
I'll just point out a bit of advice, as it's germane (if not quite related to the OP).
Don't forget that, if you do spot-color offset printing that you can do percentages of saturation of that color as well. So you can not only do full saturation of the specific color (e.g. Pantone PMS 208 red), but you can also get pinkish colors out of the same spot color using percentages (say, 20% up to about 60%). Thus, by consistently using 100% and one or two other percentages, you can have a range of consistent highlighting (or, for instance, bounding box backgrounds) for the same price as just using spot color. It should have no impact on the cost ot burn your plates (and might even mean a bit less ink use, if volume of ink use is factored into your price).
