You can select an image right click image and edit image will launch GIMP. To enable this: go Settings >Preferences > External Tools. The add the path to GIMP.

If you had an ink limiting ICC profile, you could go this route. littlecms can handle this in lcms 1.12+ Export PDF/X-3 and then print from Acrobat. You can create and save a custom color scheme with inks defined < 240% Scribus does have UCR, Under Color Removal, which might help to prevent over saturation with newsprint. Hope that helps, Peter
