Getting this error "spot colors are currently not supported in 3d and material effects..."

Hi everyone,

I am getting this error :"spot colors are currently not supported in 3d and material effects and will be converted to process colors" when I opened my file and also when I exported to PDF.

I am using the 2022 version.

I searched in Google but could not found anything. Do you know what it is?

Hi. Spot colors are special colors used in the commercial printing process, if your file is not intended to printing you don't need to worry about that message.

Did you use the 3D effects?

And there is a spot color applied to an object? Is it important that you print this in spot color? Or did you jut use Pantone libraries, because there are sop many nice colors in it?
