[Scribus] pdf standards

[John Culleton]

One of my printers (LSI) demands pdf files built to the PDF/X-1a:2001 standard 
in order to use their new OCE presses with a higher screen setting. As near 
as I can determine this is equivalent to the product of Adobe 6 or the 
PDF-1.5 standard. Can anyone confirm this? Is there a way to check for 
compliance with X-1a without buying the full Adobe Acrobat?
