It is possible for the global shortcuts in the dedicated GUI.

Is it possible for the custom shortcuts too?

A similar option as above is not present in the KDE4 GUI for custom shortcuts.

But I imagine there must be some file to back-up.

    check the file ~/.kde/share/config/kglobalshortcutsrc there are different sections, and the [khotkeys] one might be what you are searching for. It should then just be a matter of changing said file to your likings. Commented Feb 15, 2016 at 15:15
  • @Fiximan - it looks like the custom keys can be saved as groups; see my answer for details; but you should post comment as an answer or even better edit mine to add yours, so then I'll have a more complete answer to set as definitive. I have found all my custom actions as you said in ~/.kde/share/config/kglobalshortcutsrc. If you prefer I can edit my answer myself and just give credit to your comment.

The custom shortcuts seem not to be saved as an overall scheme, but as separate groups of shortcuts.

In the Custom Shortcuts window select Edit - New group, if you don't have one or more already.

Check to enable the group and then drag&drop the shortcuts you already have onto the group.

To save a group, right click on it and export:
