Summary0010626: Picture Effect > Colorize with Pantone does not work properly
DescriptionI have survived intensive research how to make monotone and duotone pictures in Scribus. The way seems to be via exporting picture in greyscale mode and with background set to alpha channel.

In Scribus everything seems quite well. In both cases:

1) duotone - I am colorizing the background with a Pantone,
2) monotone - I am colorizing the whole picture via picture effects > colorize

there IS Pantone color present in PDF output but in places where it SHOULD be alone is regular CMYK as well. It means the info about color is exported but the color itself is replaced AND/OR mixed by process colors (it is possible to see it well in Acrobat).

Notice: I have turned off the conversion in output settings.
Steps To ReproduceGimp > Mode > Grayscale (background to alpha), save as png or whatever else > Scribus/Import picture > Background color to Pantone XYZ (or Picture Effects > Colorize with Pantone XYZ)
TagsNo tags attached.
