Hi Juha Salo,
you have found all the options Inkscape currently offers - color management for display, and for SVG output. Color managed raster images or pdfs can't be exported currently, AFAIK. There exists a user-contributed extension (http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/ExportPDFCMYK) for exporting color managed pdfs, but I don't know if it is still working or maintained. It was last edited in 2011... so probably it won't work.
Here's an article about a possible color managed workflow from Inkscape via SVG to Scribus: http://libregraphicsworld.org/blog/entry/getting-cmyk-colors-from-inkscape-t...
and a tutorial video featuring Inkscape and a collection of other open source tools for color management workflow: http://screencasters.heathenx.org/wp-content/videos/ep106/ep106.html (it's a bit older, and says it doesn't work on Ubuntu - but I guess you can give it a try even if you're running Ubuntu).
Hope that helps ;)
Regards, Maren

Hi
I seem to be having a color management problem. I don't know how to fix it. When I export my drawing from Inkscape as PNG and open it in Windows photo viewer or Adobe Lightroom, the colors don't match those I see in Inkscape. However, if I view the image in Windows 8 Photo app (Metro app), the colors do seem to match Inkscape. I have created a color profile for my monitor. I have tried to change Inkscape's settings to use it through Document Properties > Color > Linked Color Profiles as well as Preferences > Input/Output > Color Management. Changing those settings don't seem to have any effect on the colors when I export the drawing. I'm a newbie when it comes to color management, so I don't know what I should be doing to preserve the colors.
