I'd actually prefer to use Linux, but my current Linux installation is running as a vm with Virtualbox on Windows XP. The XP Scribus is slow enough as it is on my slowish machine, and it would be worse running in a vm. As my monitor is calibrated, images on the screen are pretty accurate. Scribus can't use my inkjet profiles, therefore I can't pass the profileling information to the printer, and if I export to a PDF, again the profiling information doesn't get embedded in the file. Is there any way I can get my inkjet profiles passed to my printer? Jim
