While indexed color is your best option, there are some issues with it. What you may want a particular color assigned to another color, Photoshop might determine that one of your other colors are a closer match. You might want a bright yellow, but it might assign a green or brown.

    You can create a Color Table (up to 256 colors) and use that in Indexed Mode. 

     

    What is the purpose for this? Actual spot colors output?
