i would say that, compared to the rest of the free world, pdf are a strong feature of scribus. still, depending on the type of pdf you get and on the result you have to achieve, you will have to rasterize the pdfs and use the correct color profiles for it. i may be wrong, but i think that the list needs more information about the type of pdf you get (vector? text? bitmap?) and what kind of output you whish to generate (cmyk? rgb? printshop? offset? color? grayscale? web?) to help you... have fun a.l.e
