Hi there, this week, I've come across a color management issue with Scribus. I'm using 1.3.3.7 on Linux (thanks to mrdocs for the SuSE RPMs!).
I'm using sRGB as the source profile and EuroscaleCoated as printer/destination profile. Now if I include an RGB picture into Scribus and produce a CMYK PDF (Printer target), the picture comes out different than when I convert the RGB picture to CMYK with embedded EuroscaleCoated profile using tifficc. The picture converted by Scribus looked greenish (there were mostly yellow/orangish colors in the picture). I can provide test SLAs and images, if there is a need to. I supposed that embedding an image into a Scribus document, then exporting to PDF with Printer target, should produce the same result as converting to CMYK first, then exporting. I used "tifficc -i sRGB.icc -o EuroscaleCoated.icc -t1 -b -c2 -e" for the conversion which should be equivalent to setting all rendering intents in Scribus to "Relative Colorimetric" and using the same profiles. Is this a known issue? Bye, Tino. -- www.quantenfeuerwerk.de www.spiritualdesign-chemnitz.de www.lebensraum11.de
