   Hello,



   

   I have some questions regarding publishing. I am in the process of creating a book about graphic techniques in scribus. 

I've already made lots of screenshots that I intend to use in the book as illustrations. 

The screenshots are made in imagemagick in high resolution output 300 dpi. 

But I have to reformat them, which I do in the gimp. 

Can anyone with experience advise me how the gimp images are going to turn out in the print since the gimp has only 8bit color depth. 

How is Scribus pdf output is effected by these image qualities. 

   

   I am going to publish the book with lulu and their faq says that the images can be saved in high resolution jpeg formats in order to keep the file size down. 

Does anyone has experience publishing in this image format?



   

   Thanks,

   jmak
