Is there a way to convince Context to output a file in PDF X-3 format?
Some of the newer presses and prepress software will accept this format
and convert to CMYK automatically, and correctly for that particular
press.  

Scribus will handle PDF X-3 output but seems to choke when long pdf
files are imported.
