Tips for optimizing your publications for commercial printing
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/pu...CH063586601033

If you save your publication as a picture format, you are given the
option of 300 dpi. The cmyx option is found in Tools, Commercial
printing tools.

Thank you for your input Mary. Those links were an interesting read.
I had read one of them previously. I had always found the CMYK option
greyed out in the Commercial Printing Tools section. The bit I hadn't
noticed was the "change" button on the save dialogue box (oops!!).

Also, once I took the time to look around Primopdf some more and
tinker around with it, I found that I was able to do other things that
I needed with that too (pdf or jpg are acceptable for the commercial
printer).

I feel a bit of a twit really. I normally look around software in a
lot more detail before resorting to newsgroups.
Thank you for your help.

Don't!
There are large teams of people employed it would seem to deliberately
obfuscate the user interface on these programs, when one is found that
works and is acceptable to the userbase, that is taken as a signal to
change, so as to obsolete it and make its replacement 'upgrade'
attractive.
