Hi Andreas I think coreldraw 11 works well with wine, because its the last major revision to work in windows 98? please somone corrent me if im wrong, but i have tried to do extensive research on the subject. From what i remember, lots of programs that require XP/2k or IE7, have problems etc..
While i think on, is there any where that i can download a fairly complicated layout that somone has prepared for scribus, so i can reverse engineer it? and see how another user has utilised the functionality etc... ive looked through the templates on the scribus site, but most of them i believe to be templates for stickers n such like? Also, i did read somwhere that uniconverter would possibly be incorporated into scribus? just curious that all :) at the moment, i think i have to uninstall the current uniconverter with ubuntu, and re-install/compile the current one form their site? phil On 4 Mar 2009, at 22:29, avox wrote: > > > > Phil Ward wrote: >> >> Hi mick, >> sorry, i was just tryin to give my little bit of cyberspace, as >> someone mentioned about getting rid of windows completly, and for >> some its not an option, YET... >> >> i cant believe what i started... >> ill try and keep my ideas to myself, and just observe for time >> being :) >> didnt mean to pick on scribus in anyway shape or form >> >> phil >> On 4 Mar 2009, at 21:54, michael crane wrote: >> >>> Can we stop the win/linux aggravation society stuff. i think scibus >>> probably does the same things on whatever platform. >>> I guess. >>> mick >> > > No worries, here.
