Actually it does have limited support. I do printing myself, and I refuse to use M$ crap. To be able to do the job I use Gimp for some editing (making sure to use the CMYK ICC) and it will save in a RGB format. I then use scribus with the same ICC to save in CMYK and final layout. It works very well in fact. Consider Gimp like Photoshop and Scribus like Illustrator. For help and tips try meet the gimp, he offers an podcast in tips and tricks in Gimp (and sometimes compares them to Photoshop methods). Good luck :) _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
