For those of you who don't know, making this calendar is a little project of mine that lets me apply photos I've taken through the season into something I can sell. This is the 3rd edition.
I've been working pretty steady this weekend to try and get this thing done and to the printers. There's a lot of work left yet, but it's a start.
Please feel free to let me know of anywhere you'd change something in the design! :)

Some of the requirements from the printers are making my color managing complicated.
I have to keep my ink limit at approximately 300% ( +M+Y+K=300%)
I also have to make sure that all my black type DOES NOT have Cyan, Magenta or Yellow in it. This is the part I'm having an issue solving. How can I use the color settings in PS to manage C, M, and Y from contributing to the Black Type.
Here's a screen shot of what I've been trying:
