I'm using Scribus 1.3.3.8 on WinXP SP2. It is very functional and I really appreciate this software being available. I've noticed a few things as listed below. I'm not sure if some are bugs or intended behavior.
1) If I have just one item selected on the page in the Scribus editor and then print to PDF (Print -> Adobe PDF device, using Acrobat Pro 7.0), only that single item appears and the rest of the page is blank. If no object is selected, then everything on the page appears as expected. 2) Printing to PDF as above, image colors become quite washed out in the PDF viewer compared to what appears inside Scribus. This does not happen with any other application printing to PDF that I've tried. Is Scribus applying some dot-gain compensation, gamma or other profile? (I haven't intentionally set any such control, that I know about.) 3) When trying to import EPS or PS files into Scribus, I see my bitmaps get offset and mirrored. I filed a bug against 1.3.3.6 on this with examples http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=4824 The problem still happens with 1.3.3.8. Does anyone know of a workaround? Thanks for any tips!
