Hi,

There are usually lots of questions here about "import this, import
that" and related issues. 

Wouldn't it be useful to have a Wiki article on recommended workflows?

Examples:

1.
For RGB documents with photos (tipically for web viewing or laser printing):

- recommended software for editing the photos
- recommended export procedure and final format
- recommend PDF generation options on Scribus

2.
For CMYK documents with photos (tipically for offset printing)

- recommended software for editing the photos
- recommended export procedure and final format
- recommend PDF generation options on Scribus

3.
For documents with vector drawings:

- supported drawing software
- supported export procedures/formats
- recommended PDF generation options on Scirbus

A real life example for 2. with Scribus 1.3.3.x could be:

Camera -> RGB JPG -> Edited RGB JPG (Photoshop) -> CMYK PSD (Photoshop)
-> Scribus -> PDF (colour intended for Printer + Subset all fonts)

It would be nice if we could write down some certified use cases.

Best regards
Gustavo
