At a certain point you need to meet each all together and create a common ground regarding colors separation: even using the same color profile, same rendering intent, and same profiles destination I got different color separation across the three software.

I see at the colors value to guessing more or less how the color will be printed even though any RIP works differently.

Among the three I trust more Scribus, it is usually correct, actually I got a job and the cover was initially designed in Inkscape, I was watching at the separation and it wasn't right (even though I knew it would be exported in RGB); I can't tell you why it is just experience. Thus I redesigned it in Scribus and it was printed very well, and the colors came out as I expected.

For the future it is important that no matter what FLOSS design tool a person is using, the colors separation must be a constant, this is eventually the secret ingredient of Adobe suite...

Thanks... 🙏
