I did a bit of research yesterday and it looks like we're out of luck until the underlying Qt libraries (QPainter, QPrinter, QtSvg) gain support for CMYK. We could add support for selecting CMYK colours into the new colour picker, but currently all of the export options available in Qt convert colours back to RGB prior to export. > If there are no plans for that, can someone give me anideia of what would > need to be done? It would need to be implemented in Qt, but I can't find much information about whether this is planned or not. Here's a couple of relevant reports (with almost zero activity): https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-896 https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-86 https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-21276 I'm also not sure if Qt has a culture of sponsored targeted development, or who you could get to tackle this... I'm interested to know any findings you have though, as there's a number of similar Qt limitations which really hold us back: https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-28636 https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-36302 https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-6582 (also there's a report that I can't find right now about allowing editing of PDF metadata) Nyall _______________________________________________ Qgis-developer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
