Hello List, I have used Scribus 1.5.5 to prepare a file to be silk-screen-printed unto t-shirts.
Now I am stuck with the online order: The print-shop will print with special fabric-ink and their online-order-mask gives a choice of colours, all referenced by the Pantone Solid Coated series. For example we want our text printed in "PANTONE Yellow 012 C". So I do not care what it looks like on my screen; I have 255 233 0 as an approximation to show my team. But our online affordable printer, is needing the color-information encoded into our PDF/X-4 file because they offer many different colours and their order-process is fully automated. I have looked through this list and seen some hacks on how to handle Pantone-equivalents with basically RGB swatches, but our need is all different. I also just created an export to PDF/X-4 and opened it with my best editor. I can read but I see no obvious structure. When I needed, I boldly edit Scribus .sla files, but those are "nice" compared to this PDF syntax. It would be a shame after all those years with Scribus, to rob a bank and get InDesign, just to convert my (already designed) T-shirt document for the print-shop-upload. Any ideas? Thank you, greetings, Martin -- ZASKE Martin responsable GʊGʊ BP 50 - Bassila - Bénin tel GʊGʊ 66.66.11.11 tel pers 97.44.62.95 ___ Scribus Mailing List: scribus@lists.scribus.net Edit your options or unsubscribe: http://lists.scribus.net/mailman/listinfo/scribus See also: http://wiki.scribus.net http://forums.scribus.net
