Summary0003866: CMYK Image rendering / output
DescriptionI sent in the mailing list this message :"
Hello all,

My name is Marc and I published late 2004 a book using Sribus 1.2 . Now I need to rehaul the whole book to prepare the second edition. I would like to use 1.3.3.1 which I have installed in Win XP, Mandriva Linux and MacOSX Machines. I thought compatibility wouldn't be a main problem as I planned to start from scratch, using only the corrected text and pictures from the first edition.

My problem is that CMYK pictures I used in the French version of the book (nov. 2004) and spanish version (june 2005) now appear with weird colors (green), and not the correct size (somehow "cropped"), and not only into scribus. They export like that into pdf. This is happening only with some images, and not with others. When I check these pictuers into Photoshop, they appear correctely. I tried to change the color perfile of the image, not to avail. The info sheet revealed the new perfile, but the picture still appear weird.

When I try a pdf/X-3 output, the pictures maintain their weird colors. Strange enough, an older RGB picture, that I included for checking, that appeared as green within Scribus (but with no size problem) output to pdf with correct coloration.

I use scribus 1.3.3.1 and have unchecked the "highlight colors out of gamut" checkbox. What happens? Is there a way to get my images back to the new book? I read all the documentation and mailing list thread and was surprised not to find a solution.

Thank you for your help

Avox asked me to "It would be nice if you could file a bug on bugs.scribus.net and provide
your
files. You can mark it with "View Status: private" if you want to restrict
access to developers." Then here am I.
Steps To ReproduceNormally opening the file attached should be starightforward. The first two pictures (Flag and logo) look bad in CMYK and good in RGB. (This wasn't the case before, they have been printed quite well in teh book.
Strangely, the third picture (Balboa) is also CMYK, but outputs well...
