Any suggestions on how to overcome this problem. Document created in CS3 in spot colors. Separation check confirm spot colors. Document then saved for old user in Illustrator 8.0 and Illustrator 9.0. When reopened by vendor, document reverts to cymk. Driving me crazy. Thanks for any solutions.

unable to reproduce your problem.
Made a file with pantone spot colors (solid coated pantone book), saved it as a 9 version of illustrator and reopened it.
I don't have version 9 anymore so I reopend in CS1.
Spot colors are still there
Have you tried sending them a pdf of your file? Might preserve the colors.

i was also going to suggest a pdf.
in there? It will flatten the file when saving down and covert the space. . . check that and let us know.

Why are you using vendor that are still on Illustrator 8 and 9? The vendor are in the dark ages in the most serious way.
