Hello! Thanks for alle the different contributions on making Scribus a better (and capable) desktop publishing program. I have now decides to try if I could manage without Pagemaker 7.0 and do everything in it did in Scribus. Important is, that I now (with Scribus 1.3.3 from http://ubuntu.moshen.de) can import my old fonts and use CMYK. (Look forward to the day also Gimp will do this perfectly). But I came across a sad problem on this, I hope someone know how to solve this.
When I try to import a odt-file from OOo 2.0.3 the following happens: (The following are translated from norwegian, so it may be a bit different from what is written in the english version) 1. I mark my textframe and ... 2. Go to ?File - import - get Text? and find my odt-file. Then ... 3. I get a dialog with the question: Choose a conversion filter So far nothing wrong, but, wait! The box is empty! I can not choose a single fileformat, because no matter if I try to use the dropdown tool, it still shows nothing. If I just close my eyes and press ?Ok?, hoping Scribus will know what to do, then the program chrashes with the following remark to me: 4. Scribus is crashing because of signal #11. I suppose that something is just wrong with the linking between scribus, openoffice and the file properties, but I dont know how to correct this :-( I also, for testing it, tried with a perfectly new document with just one textframe and did the same, but used a very simple txt-document. And exactly the same happend again :-/ Both documents managed the same task in scribus 1.2.4 (standard ubuntu dapper build). The number 3 above then never occured at all. I also am perfecttly able to paste text in a frame from those very same documents, but then, of course, all my formatting is lost. Perhaps this bug: http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=3613 is related to it? Any ideas anyone? Best regards Axel Bojer
