Agree! It is entirely possible that English is the OP's second or maybe third language. Scribus is after all an international project. How is your Dutch these days? Mine is nonexistent, despite having a grandfather named Rowse. I am grateful that posters from other lands take pity on monoglots like me and converse in my birth language. As for his problem, I don't know the disease but upgrading to 1.4.3 would be the first therapy I would apply. If his file is book length I would break it up into chapter segments as a second therapy. If you want lightning speed in processing a long complex book at one shot then TeX plus a good text editor comes closer than Scribus. But Scribus has many other virtues. -- John Culleton Wexford Press Free list of books for self-publishers: http://wexfordpress.net/shortlist.html PDF e-book: "Create Book Covers with Scribus" available at http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html
