2-Color Image

OK, first let me start of my saying I am a Web Designer who is starting
to dabble in print design. I have done 4-color small brochures before.
I am now doing a 2-color(big pain!!). My printer is telling me this
image is still 4 color. Here is the link to it (it is
zipped):www.jodynelson.com/CONCLUSION.zip
Here are the steps that I used to make Duotone:
1. Convert image to Greyscale
2. Convert to Duotone (PANTONE 654 C)
3. Save as EPS
What did I do wrong?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Spot color design & separating is a much much bigger bitch than process...

In article <1151077498.070266.318740@r2g2000cwb.googlegroups.com>,
Your printer is incorrect. This is a one-color (Pantone 654) image. It
emphatically IS NOT four-color.
However, you should not set type in Photoshop. You should make the
background (hand with dry erase marker) image in Photoshop, then set
your type in your page layout program. When you set your type in
Photoshop and saved the file as an EPS, this turned the type into
pixels. It will not print as smoothly as it would if you used an
illustration or page layout program to set your type.
Photoshop is an image editing program, not a page layout program.
