Thanks. In fact, that already occurred to me, and I tried Krita (it's quite nice--I have been using GIMP for a long time and don't generally care for KDE, but Krita seems well worth exploring). But apparently just converting to CMYK isn't enough. I did that, but I get the same result with the Krita-converted image as with RGB (BTW, I am using TIFF images with LZW compression--does that make a difference?) Maybe, as Jan said, I need to use the same profiles in GIMP/Krita and Scribus. Makes sense, but on my system the two applications don't seem to *have* the same set of profiles available. How can I set them up to work together? -- Matt Gushee : Bantam - lightweight file manager : matt.gushee.net/software/bantam/ : : RASCL's A Simple Configuration Language : matt.gushee.net/rascl/ :
