hard to say without seeing the files... btw, please update to current 1.4svn there is a fix which may help here... (not sure, but the patch may already be in the latest .deb for ubuntu. only for ubuntu). i didn't have the time to exactly study what the script exactly does, but i think that we have to check it throughly and see how the PDF export of scribus can be improved to correctly handle spot colors. i'm travelling right now and i won't have much time until the weekend (well, basically, no time from half past four this evening until thursday -- or friday -- evening!) ... but i will try to do what i can! ciao a.l.e
