Hi John,

Scribus doesn't, and I hope it never will. This is far beyond the 
"responsibility" of a page layout software.

Hopefully, the GIMP will support CMYK and colour management in the next major 
release (2.4), and btw: inkscape also doesn't support CMYK either (yet).

Use GIMP or one of the free stitchers (some are mentioned here: 
http://wiki.scribus.net/index.php/Live_DTP_CD) and let Scribus do the 
RGB>CMYK conversion.
