| I have multi-layered artwork and text in grayscale. But client would
now like it in sepia: Black and Pantone 143c.
I am using CS3.
Is there a decent was to achieve this?
Thanx

Never sure what sepia exactly is.... anyhow, what you want
is kind of a duotone?

Yes, going from grayscale to 2 colors: black and pantone 143c, which
should look like sepia. I guess I need to experiment with recoloring
artwork?

Is all your art vector? If so you can set your grayscale/black objects
to overprint, then in Appearance palette flyout Add New Fill, drag it
below the grayscale/black fill, make it Pantone 143 and adjust tint
percentage per object to your preference. A LOT depends on your art and
visual intent though.

go to mode and make it duotone or multitone.
select the colors in the pane window.
save it has DCS 2
make sure you sep it on your local printer and you should only have two plates.
the printer needs two plates.

Two plates when it comes down to duotone, more plates when
it turnes out to be multitone maybe?
What Inez says is the way to go, just experiment with the
precentages black and Pantone.

That would be for raster/Photoshop, right?
