Dear Peter, thank you for your quick reply. So Scribus does not yet leave images as they are but converts them on export to PDF/X-3 silently into RGB. Not knowing this can be quite a pitfall, because the above mentioned export options suggested to me that the image gets into the PDF with its own profile, as it is also possible with PDF/X-3. > 1.3.0cvs already has a ton of CMYK image improvements including > natively supporting CMYK PSD files. Color management as well. This will be quite good! Thank you again Yours sincerely Tobias Hilbricht
