Hi ! I'm called Aur?lien, I live in France and am currently in PhD in Acoustics and Signal and Information Processing.
I play music and take part in a lot of associative things around music and art. I use scribus in that way to create CD's cover, or flyers, and so on. I'm using scribus-cvs under Debian SID (currently scribus-cvs 1.3.3), on a laptop that is a Celeron 2GHz, with 256DDR, 200Go HDD, and a sis integrated video card. I should say it's sometimes quite hard and long !!! Here's my problem today (I did alreay come on irc channel, but today, I can't !) : I'm publishing a picture to announce a concert. This picture is 400mm wide for 600mm height, CMJN (CMYK, is it ?), at 300dpi. There are 5 layers in the scribus file, one contains the picture on which I'm supposed to work, whos height is 7300px and width is 4866px. It's a tif file in CMYK. The others layers just contains several texts, and picture, which are quite small. I've to say that the tif file weights 102Mo ! My publication has now ended, but I didn't convince the society who will print it to use scribus, and I've to export the file to a pdf file. I've tried it, but anyway, it doesn't work. A bad allocation, it says, in the log. Not more. I've tried to reduce the size (in px) of the big picture, and I managed to export it, but as I'm to the right size, it won't. I don't know if that comes from my laptop, or is well-known, or what. I can send someone the file, I've got a big network, if that helps (I can put it all on a ftp server). Hope you did understand my problem, and will help me in managing it ! -- ========================================================== Aur?lien Roux Doctorant (PhD) Laboratoire d'Acoustique de l'Universit? du Maine UMR CNRS 6613 Avenue Olivier Messiaen 72085 Le Mans Cedex 9 France -------------------- Tel (bureau) : (33) 02 43 83 35 89 Fax : (33) 02 43 83 35 20 Email : Aurelien.Roux at univ-lemans.fr -------------------- http://laum.univ-lemans.fr http://www.univ-lemans.fr __________________________________ / Chiffrez et signez vos messages \ | Utilisez les cl?s GnuPG | | | | HOWTO : | | http://vilya.org/gpg/gpg-intro.html | \ __________________________________ / ==================================
