Yes, I just tried Preview and I saw that I was able to delete the  
pages I didn't want. So I was able to accomplish what I needed by  
generating multiple PDFs of the color seps in Creator and then  
deleting the extra pages from each one. Any time in the future will  
Creator let you choose individual color seps in the Export PDF box  
like we can in the Print box? (You are probably going to say send it  
in as a suggestion, but I believe I did send it in once as a request,  
so it should already be in the database.)
