Thanks for the explanations, but I have not still resolved the problem. I use a linux to slackware 10.2 with kde 3.4 I have replaced the Open Type fonts with True Type fonts but in the interface of scribus I do not find the fonts. In the other applications the font it comes used correctly The fonts are installs in ~/.font. Thanks for the suggestions.
