Used to use Micrografx Picture Publisher, am I right that it is only for 
Windows?

GIMP does not seem to tackle CMYK nor (to my finding) does ImageMagick (the 
"convert" command on some Linux boxes). (The latter seems more robust for big 
images on my box at least.)

As I have had the same problem:
	The fine boundary lines on a map converting from rgb(000) to 
	cmyk(1110) to the angst of the pinter who had to align the 
	three colours,
I too would like to hear if anyone has a solution for incorporating simple 
raster graphics using black levels, rather than just CMY, on Linux?
