Hi, ah, that's good news, so there is still hope :-)
I have the problem with pdfs containing advertisements, so they include photos, grafic elements and text. And I want to send the endproduct to a online-printer (flyer-alarm.de) in Germany in order to print a DINA4 magazine. In the moment the photos in the pdfs generated from scribus look like they have been copied on a color-copymachine ... Would it make a difference, if I convert the pdfs into some other format (jpg, tiff, what shall I choose??) before I load them into scribus? Hope, that's enough information, otherwise please ask!!!
