Hi all, additionally to the problem St?phanie has described, the print preview on my archlinux machine isn't working has expected. I can only see the CMYK plates in the print preview window although I have custom spot colors in my document.
See http://imagebin.org/158217 I'm running scribus 1.4.0 rc3 on archlinux with gosthscript 9.02. I have tried with scribus svn compiled this morning and it is the same situation (BTW it looks quite cool :)). However with debian and 1.4.0 rc3 it works well... However I don't think it is related to our pdf export problem has I didn't use my arch linux machine but my debian one in the first place...
