Recently I reported that the full colour PDF/X-1 Cover *and* Interior exports<br>
in 1.4.x passed all premedia checks with LSI.<br>
<br>
I can now report back that the actual proof worked too. The *entire* process<br>
worked like a charm. The final "proof of the pudding" is the colour proof<br>
hardcopy (paperback), which arrived today, and looks just darned GOOD!<br>
Everything lines up, the colours are bright with solid contrast, it's simply a<br>
good job, and such a relief to not have to use a separate program to export to<br>
this specific format any more. Well done, Scribus team!!!<br>
<br>
Anyone interested can read more about the actual book, and contents, here:<br>

ps. I realize this smooth PDF/X-1 export in 1.4.x might come as no surprise to<br>
the developers, (code + backport patch -> all works), but there may still be<br>
people, (end users like myself), who would like to have this confirmed through<br>
experience in the teeth of the real world.<br>
<br>
Hence the continued feedback.<br>
