Ive installed the colour palette in order to view it in CMYK. Ive also got 2.99 installed too.


What im wondering is how is it possible for me to export to PDF with the CMYK colour scheme? Unfortunately I cannot export to PNG or any other format as this file is going to be printed for a vinyl record sleeve so has to be PDF.

Its been a whole learning curve for me this and im right at the end but didnt realise the CMYK thing so now trying to get my head around how I can do this.

Any help would be immense!

Just an initial comment here, I suggest waiting for rich2005's opinion which will be more technical and possibly the best suggestion.

Having said this:
1st - Gimp works in RGB format, not in CMYK.
2nd - I read somewhere that the .PDFs generated by Gimp are too big.

The idea then would be that you use either Krita or Scribus to work with CMYK and to create the .PDF
