Can't print to RGB using Acrobat Distiller from Illustrator CS

[nancyfusco@adobeforums.com]

Ok, I've got a basic document that is set as an RGB document and I'm using all RGB colors however when I go to print and choose Acrobat Distiller | Output The Seperations are in CMYK!! How can I print out RGB seperations instead?

Oh, and I'm using Illustrator CS

Nancy,

Separations and RGB don't go together. You cannot obtain 'RGB Separations'
(and I can't think of good reason for wanting them).

The only way to create 3 plates would be to use 3 spot colours of red, green
and blue in a CMYK document and create content entirely with those three
spot colours

Hi Len,

Thanks for your response! I'll print to spot colors of Red, Green, and Blue instead.
