I have a scribus document and it will be exported as a PDF and send to a printing company (they actually prefer pdfs). They also have their own icc profiles which I use in Scribus.
I want to get it as right as possible from the beginning and my question is: How reliable is print preview and the document I see in Acrobate reader when it comes to colour accuracy? I tried all the PDF standards (I don't know yet if they accept all of them) and they all look really good on screen and so does the printing preview. I also wonder about the ?solid colours? option under ?color management?. The icc profile from the printing company is not available there, is this how it should be? I am also not sure what to do with ?solid colours? when exporting pdfs (colour tab). I assume ?Colour? --> ?Images:? --> ?Use ICC Profile?, means that Scribus uses the profile I chose in CMYK pictures. Is that correct? That profile is also embedded in the image from the beginning. If not what is the difference here between an image and a picture? /Bo -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/some-qs-about-exporting-pdfs-tp14338630p14338630.html Sent from the Scribus mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
