Summary	0010386: Fillcolors pdf export seem to be broken
Description	In the attached file several forms are stacked and look like the attached jpg. The export to pdf gives very different results, depending wether i choose 1.3 or 1.4 and printer or internet. No-one except 1.4 monitor is looking a bit similar to what is shown onscreen or picture-export. Sometime the colouring seems to be the opposite (top darker than lower edge) one some the lower half looks very dark. All with the latest 1.4.0.svn rc6 Please have a look att the attached sla and pdf files. The jpg-file shows how it should be correct. This indicates also the workaround: Export all pages as pictures and import the pictures as background.
Tags	No tags attached.

Mike 2011-11-16 16:23 reporter ~0027213	Scribus doesn't have transparency flattener, so PDF 1.3 is not any surprise. Preflight Verifier even writes: Object has transparency. See 0000876 - I don't know from what version will be this feature available in Scribus... 1.5.0?

jghali 2011-11-16 17:07 administrator ~0027214	The use of blend modes can also lead to great differences when converting between rgb and cmyk. That can be easily experimented with Photoshop.
