    I’m trying to get my logo on a mic flag. I made it in photoshop and sent it to the printer as a .jpeg RGB They responded with this;

    Your logo is a Four-Color Process Color Design and cannot be printed directly on to plastics. (Spot Color Only) SOLUTION

    Since when RGB. You need CMYK – print.

    Spot: an ink mixed to an exact color before printing. See Swatches palette, and look for any color with the small white triangle in the corner — this is spot color.
