Should I select a CMYK profile? My printer is LSI. I refer to the cover file which is in color. Previously I sent PDF X/1-a:2001 CMYK files from Scribus 1.5.0. But now they will accept X-3 and RGB format cover files. I will be using the Adobe RGB icc profile for the actual cover. But the "X-3 Rendering Intent" field won't accept any of the RGB icc profiles. This question does not arise for the B/W interior, only for the color cover of the same book. -- John Culleton Wexford Press Free list of books for self-publishers: http://wexfordpress.net/shortlist.html PDF e-book: "Create Book Covers with Scribus" available at http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html
