Summary0005365: Gradient with different shades of a spot color gets converted to CMYK instead of halftones
DescriptionWhen applying a gradient made up of a spot color (using 100% shade to 0% shade) to a shape, the resulting PDF outputs the gradient on process plates instead of on a single spot color plate.
Additional InformationIn my case, the document consisted of only three colors in total, two Pantone colors and black. As a workaround, I converted the spot colors to Cyan and Magenta respectively and instructed the printer to print the corresponding plates using the correct Pantone colors instead.

A test file that demonstrates the issue in included.
