Correction.
Here in Spain all the prints especially wants CMYK!
Mostly they want big ads to be "vectored CMYK pdf's. Smaller materials
can be CMYK TIFF.
I myself have also those Pantone maps, and I haven't used them for years
because nobody uses them (anymore)..
Hint for the Inkscape and Gimp developers: CMYK support would be more
than nice addition. As well as Gimp's proper CMYK management and 24bit
channels.. :-)

Hi Máirín,
thanks for bringing this up. While it is not strictly related to this
I'd like to point out another problem again. No vendor accepts CMYK, at
least here in the EU they all want Pantone. We had this with media and
with stickers, in fact I am not aware of a single item where we did not
have this problem. If it's just the Fedora logo colors, this is easy,
but for more difficult artwork, we continue to have problems.
Kind regards,
Christoph
