I have a project where it is necessary that the
perfect bound book cover be laid out in Inkscape
and then finished off in Scribus to get the
needed CMYK color map and pdf x/1-a:2001 format.

My first of many questions is: given the current
states of Inkscape 0.91 and Scribus 1.5.x (pick
your poison, I have both 1.5.0 and 0.5.1), what is
the optimal file format for making the
transfer from Inkscape to Scribus: svg,
pdf or tiff?

All answers appreciated as usual.
