Yes, select PDF-Adobe acrobat file format (GSP 65) then click on OPTIONS then select the color mode you want for Spots and Vinyls. You have 3 options CMYK, CMYK Math and RGB. Most people use RGB as it has a larger color space and provides a more accurate color when importing to other programs. I would recommend turning on USE PURE WHITE, and INCLUDE COLOR NAMES FOR CMYK COLORS.

Omega 5 didn't have that option. You would want to upgrade to Omega 7 to gain that functionality.
