Actually SVG does allow for proper CMYK, as does Inkscape. It is just that the export path we use (Cairo) does not support CMYK.

Hi all
I have been using inkscape for a while now, my only problem has been a lack of native CMYK (and spot color) support for PDF's from Inkscape. I was wondering if there is way to get this piece of software (moonshiner.sourceforge.net) to work with Inkscape esp in the "Save as" pdf dialogue? I checked it with an old version of <adobe/> software I have and the resulting file is definitely in a CMYK color space.
I agree, but CMYK is not covered in the svg standard. My solution is to import the Inkscape document into Scribus and then export it using pdf X/1-a:2001 as the target format. -- John Culleton Wexford Press Free list of books for self-publishers: http://wexfordpress.net/shortlist.html PDF e-book: "Create Book Covers with Scribus" available at http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html
