I am tying to import greyscale into omega 5.0

I use Corel Draw x8 and I tried export my design EPS, PDF in greyscale when i import my file into corel draw it opens as greyscale and when i import it in Omega 5 so i can print it, it open as CMYK
I would like to print it in greyscale

Any one know how i can correct this ???

Thanks

To print in greyscale, I'm pretty sure it has to be a bitmap. So if you're working with a vector object, you will need to rasterize it in Omega.

1. Select object and set to size needed for production
2. Click on Tools > Convert to Image, set DPI and other options and click OK

Once converted and still selected:

1. Image Fill (Control + Shift + 1)
2. Set Color Type to Spot Black
3. Set the Halftone and the LPI and click on OK
