Hi,

Creating a PDF which has CMYK images which are 'tagged' with ICC 
profiles + exporting from Scribus with Printer in the Color tab + 
embedded fonts  essentially will give you the same results and most 
likely will pass a PDF/X-1 preflight.

That said, we will probably have the ability in the future to export 
100% perfect PDF/Xn versions. There is not doubt Scribus can do it, 
it is simply a matter of creating a sensible GUI and ehancing the 
preflighter.
