Hi, I doubt seriously there are errors with the PDF itself. We test them regularly with specialist pre-press applications to make sure they are conformant to commercial print norms. It might be that the copier is looking for an indexed color space which Scribus does not support. I 'm not sure of the methods they are using, but when you export PDF, it essentially sets one color space for the document for all objects in the PDF - exception: spot colors. Hope that helps, Peter
