Just a brief note to introduce myself and both seek and offer help. 1. I'm a pre-press person, for more than 20 years with vendors of high-end stuff, most notably Scitex. 2. I'm a Mac person, though I'm o.k with Windoze and a pretty good amateur Unix geek.
I seek.... Help on Mac Scribus. Currently I'm using the Fink version, though I'm moving to stay more current by using Cervesia. Specifically, help with mouse clicks -- I know a little about this but need more. I can't seem to figure out how to access the Story Editor. I offer... Considerable experience with other Mac DTP apps, including xPress and InDesign. A fair amount of experience with RIPs and high-end printing in general Ongoing contacts with the US DTP community (whatever that is) and organizations such as DDAP, which has so far been rather unsuccessful in promoting the virtues of PDF/X. Considerable experience in document writing and lots of free time to spend. I've been in contact with Peter Linnell. HW
