Project: True PDF handling in Scribus
Motivation
Currently, PDF/PS import in Scribus is possible through image frames. However, when exporting a Scribus file as PDF the imported PDFs get rasterized thus colors are changed, text is rastered, links are lost, file size increases because of large bitmap image etc. Therefore the Swiss Open Systems User Group /ch/open sponsors CHF 2000 for implementation of the following requirements by April 30st, 2008 within the official SVN repository:Requirements
- Import of PDF file: Selection which page is imported
- Scaling: The imported PDF page can be scaled
- Cropping: The imported PDF page can be cropped
- Exporting of Scribus file as PDF: The imported PDF page's colors (RGB and CMYK), vector elements, texts including their font, links etc. are preserved
- User friendly GUI: Handling of the imported PDF should be tightly integrated in the existing user interface
