First the plugin. It is separate+ A very old plugin to create CMYK images suitable to send to a printing company. It does make layers of C,M,Y,K Last time I tried it in Gimp 2.10 (I see you are visiting from the future and using Gimp 3 ) It was very flakey.
Yes makes sense, but who determines the colours and If not the primaries RGB / CMY then you need to remember the colours used, each will be a mix of RGB.
Another question. You mention stencils, Are these hand-cut or something else, say masks used for screen printing ?
Quote:.. I just want to be able to separate any image into four main colors aside from black, so five colors... In order to save each color as a layer to export as a PNG so that I can create stencils from each of the five colors so that when stacked they compose the image again...
