this is a long term bug which -- afaik -- we can't reproduce reliably. if you can find a step by step description on how to trigger the wild creation of copies please fill a bug report in http://bugs.scribus.net or send them to this list. you may have to join the .sla file on which you see it. ciao a.l.e
