In Mac-Applications I never recognized a problem either.
I've looked around a little and found that there are many fonts of different kind that aren't recognised by scribus but work fine in Inkscape, for example: Chicago (Apple Trutype), Univers (Adope PS Type1), Frutiger (PS Type1). >> >> 1.

I tried with all tricks (compressing with stuffit, installing stuffit for windows, etc.) but it doesn't work :-( So I can't imagine that any dtp-professional would throw all his expensive fonts away and buy new ones, even if they were available just to work with Scribus. And what I can't understand is that theese fonts work without any problem on the same machine also under X11 with Inkscape. Don't get me wrong, I like Scribus very much and there are great improvements, but as long as most of my fonts don't work in Scribus I can't use it. I hope in the future the font-management will be as good as in Inkscape or sodipodi. Regards Ralf
