Force 100% K black for imported SVG in Publisher

[briff]

I'm creating a book that contains SVG graphics and musical scores (also SVG). Will be printed with digital.

The printing house expects that the text be 100% K, and not "rich black". This is easy, I do it, export in PDF X-1a will be great.

However, the logos and the scores are in RGB color space (#000000) - which also totally makes sense, as SVG is an RGB format.

My problem is that I cannot set that the RGB 000 be set as CMYK 0 0 0 100. I'm not sure how it really goes out. If the music part is converted to CMYK 20 30 40 80 or something "rich black", it will be bad.

Is there any way to make sure that what is black text/music in the SVG comes out as 100% Black in CMYK during export?
