I need to include EPS pictures (logos and barcode) in a Scribus project.

These pictures appear as CMYK(0,0,0,100) when opened with Inkscape, yet the printing company complains that it's not.

I believe the issue comes from Scribus : the properties window show a select box for the source profile, and for EPS pictures I have only 4 choices : Compatible with Adobe RGB (1998), Lstar-RGB.icc, ProPhoto-RGB and sRGB.

I tried with and without black point compensation, but it seems to make no difference.

How do I force Scribus to render this pictures as 100 % black in the PDF output ?

Note that the output has to be CMYK and the document also contains color pictures.

You should try to import the EPS in the Scribus file (File > Get Vector File...), instead of loading it into an image frame.

Depending on the Scribus version and on the software / libraries installed Scribus can (or not) read EPS file.

Just found out that unchecking the "Embed PDF & EPS Files (EXPERIMENTAL)" option in PDF export settings did the trick. However with such a label I wonder how reliable it is…

The tooltip mentions it doesn't support color spaces yet, maybe this is my luck…

Anyway, hopefully someone will come up with a better option ?
