How to Name Your Spot Data in Illustrator

In order for ProductionHouse to correctly distinguish and address Spot
data, naming conventions for this data must be adhered to both in the
image editing creation stage and the Rip. While using the default name
Spot 1, is the simplest route requiring the fewest number of steps, there
may be instances when using something other than this is desirable. For
instance, when data is created by one individual and printed by another,
naming spot data may make desired output results more clear. As well, if
English is not your native language, use a name that is more meaningful in
your language to be more effective. Please do not use the name "White" as
this color flags ProductionHouse to be treated in a particular manner not
desired for this workflow.
