I have created a simple Logo in Photoshop...

You have already made a mistake.

Designing logos in Photoshop is like driving nails with a screwdriver. It is using the wrong tool. You use a vector program like Illustrator to design logos. If you design logos in Photoshop, you can expect to encounter four problems:

1. The logo can not be resized to any size, and will not print crisply like a vector logo will

2. The background will not be transparent in programs like PageMaker or QuarkXPress.

3. You cannot use spot colors easily in your logo.

4. If you print your logo professionally on a printing pres,s it will not trap.

...and have deleted all the
background in the layer so it is transparent. but regardless of how I try to save the file, when I bring it into Pagemaker, there is alweays a white frame around the outline of the logo, making it unsuitable to past it on a coloured page.

Yes, that is correct.

How do I save a file in Photoshop so that is contains the image of the logo only without any framed background.

You have 2 solutions:

1. Click on the logo file you have now. Drag it to the trash. Empty the trash. Start again in Illustrator, not Photoshop.

2. Open the logo in Photoshop. Use the Pen tool to put a path around the logo. Save the path as a clipping path. Save the file as an EPS. Note that it will not print correctly to a non-PostScript printer like a home inkjet printer; EPS images only print correctly to PostScript printers.
