Re: [tdf-discuss] PDF export in CMYK
Tibor, A few years ago i would say yes a good idea that CMYK but deaser days RGB is a common workflow due to the online use of the same (rgb) documents. CMYK is printer business so they mostly prefer to do the transfer off a RGB-pdf into a CMYK-pdf. Important for this process is using the correct colorspace (sRGB or adobeRGB) is more important and there are we have no tools in LO ! Fernand Hi, Friend of mine had an issue with openoffice, He was asked to deliver pdf in CMYK colorspace. It is not possible by now AFAIK. But are there any plans or any work being done in this regard? I just wonder, it is not critical issue for me, nor for my friend. He used some Adobe product at the end...

Re: [tdf-discuss] PDF export in CMYK
Hi, Most printshops do the RGB-CMYK conversion themselves, normal home/office printing devices take in RGB. If your friend wants to enter the field of real DTP (and does not have/want the cash to shell out to Adobe) he could go for Scribus, a cross-platform FOSS DTP application. Scribus imports styles and some formatting from OOo/LibO. The learning curve (in DTP) is quite steep, and you're entering a minefield of professional techniques and jargon which is best handled by the printshops - unless one wants to take the plunge themselves. The easiest would be to place the LibO-RGB.pdf in an image frame in Scribus (each page separately) and let Scribus render the file to Scribus-CMYK.pdf. There are also a bunch of command-line tools which can assist in such a conversion, but for them to be useful one has to know exactly which parameters to use.

But it is the Office-Suite LO as a sequel to the OOo-Office-Suite in a freer frame. (OK, some time it was thought it could be OOo again). ~ That means TDF has no (clear) mission at the moment for LO. But the core of the TDF-Community is the Office-Suite LO. And TDF is founded for building and progress of LO. ~ TDF offers the final LO in the next few weeks (I think) without a mission/vision or goals for LO?

Re: [tdf-discuss] TDF/LO on a wrong way?
Johannes, Perhaps this is not the place to insert myself, and if not, I will desist. I think your question is a good one. I think LO is a side-effect of this desire for something seminally different. Most people were mostly satisfied with what OO.o could do. The fear of being roped into a single Oracle vision and a longing for what might be accomplished by a community driven by community rather than subtle coercion are the drivers of the schism that started TDF. (IMO) A few years ago, There was a similar conversation which led to the formation of the centralized polylingual support web site for OO.o. I was one of the original team that drove that move. The outcome, though solving the issue of our site being controlled by a single individual, was not what we had hoped. We could not push past the work-a-day aspects of getting the site up, similar to some responses here. Where I went, and where you are going here, is into deeper strategy and positioning of the organization. The deeper strategy gives the organization legs. Without it, we have 1 software suite and we can never hope to have an impact upon the world beyond stealing market-share from other similar products.

Re: [tdf-discuss] PDF export in CMYK
Hi thank you both for answers, I understand now the situation... My friend is historcian and he is not interested in learning any DTP technics – that is quite understandable. His first pdf exported from OO was flatly rejected as it was in RBG. It is fault or shortcoming of this publishing shop but he will not change it. Today, I found and tested pstill tool, it converts pdf to CMYK pdf, only colors (in included photos) are somehow shifted, or undersaturated. I had not investigated this issue yet, it might be something trivial … This was some background, but I have following question: You wrote: „Important for this process is using the correct colorspace (sRGB or adobeRGB) is more important and there are we have no tools in LO !“ - are you trying to say, that OO/LibreOffice exports PDFs to wrong RGB type that can not be converted properly into CMYK pdf?
