Need to convert black to 100percent

[kim]

Hi
Did a Publisher newsletter which I have to send to a printer. It is
required in PDF format cmyk.
They sent it back saying The black text must be 100% black - it cannot be
built out of other colours. My black is composed of 4 CMYK colours and it
won't look nice when printed.
How can I convert the black in my Publisher document to 100 % I can't find
anything in the menus. Also when I do that won't it just become cmyk again
when the PDF is output?
Help!
confused and boss breathing down neck!

First of all, what version of Publisher?

Thank you for responding. I am using Publisher 2003

1. Then, using 2003, did you set up the document as CMYK or RGB initially?

2. How large is your file? Can it be emailed? If less than 20 MB, can you
email it to me at terje (at) modellfly (dot) info? I will look into it if
you do not mind.

Sorry for late reply, but has been to a meeting this evening (Norwegian
time). Will look back early tomorrow morning (9 hours from now).

Not solved - I had a day off yesterday!
When I set up I did not choose cymyk or RGB- I'll try and mail it to you.
Thank You
