My scanning of sla documents to look for the source of this suggests that it comes from a saving of the default font inside the document. It might be worth a try to open the doc in Scribus, go to File > Document Settings, changing the default font, and then saving the doc to see if this works. Otherwise, you have to do a plain text search and replace on the sla file to get rid of the annoyance. Greg
