Hi list, Those of you who follow the developments in our experimental branch 1.5svn are probably aware that a new import filter for Apple's PICT format has been added. The filter will work for bitmap and vector content.
To make sure Scribus can import these files correctly, we would be glad to receive as many test files as possible. If you happen to have PICT files (e.g. from pre-OS-X versions of MacOS or MacOffice) lying around on your hard disk or another storage medium, it would be great if you could create an archive and upload it to the bugtracker. If you are not allowed to distribute the files, you can set the respective bug report to "private," which means that only the developers will be able to get the archive (and see the report in the first place). We can also guarantee that the archive will be removed once the files have been tested. Please do not upload any files exported from OpenOffice.org or StarOffice, as these have already been tested extensively. If you are concerned about uploading files because of copyright/licensing restrictions, please feel free to contact me directly. I will then tell you which developers need them for testing. Cheers, Christoph
