no, and it's not planned to extend it in that direction. the plugin is exporting to the HTML format so that you can further use the content you have prepared in an epub editor or on a website. it won't even try to replicate the layout of the frames as you made it in scribus. what it will do (and mostly already does): - it will keep all the meaningful text formattings (style names, bold, italics, sub and superscripts, ...). - it will try to guess the order of the text and image frames (by going from top left to bottom right. - it will resize images according to the target characteristics and to the proportions of the image in the page margins. in the case of the epub exporter it will pack everything in a well formatted epub file which you will then be able to further edit with sigil (as an example by exchanging the css file with one that you have already prepared for your publications). programming the html exporter won't start before the epub exporter is finished. scribus is not a website creator and the changes and the programming effort to make it become one are probably huge. not to mention that those feature will make the work experience more complicated for everyone else. ciao a.l.e
