Hi, Scribus works very well. A little Photobook 17,5x17,5 cm 112 pages, all pages full photographies, makes a PDF-X3 of 993 MB. The images - jpg - makes 540 MB. Only few text, only few frames and groups with names.
It was very slow the last pages but an iBook G4 (OSX 10.4; scribus 1.351) with 750 MB RAM did it. http://www.blurb.com/books/1400517 But why the PDF is so big? Shure I set full quality (zip) and 300 dpi. Than it is the same to set the quality of compression to middle or maximum. It is both the same 993 MB. May be it differs if not set zip. regards lars ---------------------- Lars Hennings 12045 Berlin, 0170 3806564, 030 85713790
