Hi Mike,
I guess what you mean is that the CMYK separations aren't available.
You first need to check the box for Display CMYK. This is because
Scribus normally is internally managing colors in RGB. It will create
CMYK when a PDF is created for output to printer (Color tab of the PDF
Export dialog).
After you check Display CMYK, then the file is processed to show CMYK
(and obviously this is going to be a visual depiction of ink colors in
RGB) and the greyed out options should activate.
