Thank you Stefano, you haven't give me your e-mail address. I'm sending most of it so you can see the whole of the problems. To see it as 2 A5 side by side you will need to instruct the Adolby to show 2 page.
I would be happy to send you the Scribus file if you think it would be better. Thanks again.

Now my cloud don't seem to work, I would have liked to send a sample. Is there any other way I can do that? And if so, what format. PDF is the one i had attempted to send 3 pages but that was to big for the list. I then attempted a png format at 200dpi. Still too big. Is there any member of this list that would except the the PDF to make it available to others???? Wena D.

Separate from the actual book creation, you should be able to make some sample pages with typical text, then play around with fonts and font sizes, printing them out as you decide. Remember you can make fractional font sizes, like 8.6 or 9.3 points. You may also find that you need a slightly larger size of one language or the other, depending on legibility. Playing a bit with linespacing may be needed.

Two of the major new features in 1.5.1 are support for the CIE L*a*b* colour model and an import filter for Swatchbooker's SBZ format. I've also added the CIE LAB and CIE HLC palettes that were already included in the 1.4.6 release, only this time as SBZ files with L*a*b* values. I'm planning to convert all colour palettes to SBZ and, if possible, to L*a*b* (at least where it makes sense). One of the major advantages of SBZ is that you can store additional information like description, as well as copyright and licencing information in those files. Even better: This information can be translated! And as a cherry on top, it's also possible to include a pixel image of a colour reference or a logo inside! The easiest way to translate SBZs is using Swatchbooker (http://www.selapa.net/swatchbooker/). Unfortunately, the software doesn't run on Windows, despite the availabality of a (non-working) Windows version, and on Mac OS X you have to install it via Homebrew (http://brewformulas.org/Swatchbooker). If you can't use Swatchbooker: SBZ files are nothing more than an XML file in a ZIP archive, so you can edit the content in a text editor, if you wish. You can make yourself familiar with Swatchbooker using the two SBZ files shipped with Scribus 1.5.1. In 1.5.2 we plan to move most of our colour palettes to a server. You will then be able to download them via the new Resource Manager. I will, however, upload all SBZ versions of the palettes to the bugtracker prior to the 1.5.2 release, so you can use the BT for your translations. And there's even more to come. It is planned to make the complete Open Colour Systems Collections (OCSC) available from our server. In case you don't know: OCSC (current version 1.0) comprises 367 mostly commercial colour systems in the L*a*b* colour model. Although we'll probably use version 2.0, which is due to be released prior to 1.5.2 and includes even more systems, translators can already have a look at v. 1.0 here: http://dtpstudio.de/downloads/OCSC_1_0.zip. Version 2.0 will also comprise ASE and plain text versions of the palettes, as well as plain text versions of the descriptions. By translating OCSC 2.0 you wouldn't only help Scribus, but also everyone else who wants to integrate them with their software. Translators will be credited in the OCSC README file. The palette files themselves are being published under a CC licence. Please note that the translation will be easy but extremely boring. A typical description looks like this: Company: maleco Farbwerk GmbH Product: maleco Spirit innen Product type: Interior paint Colours: 1639 Contact: maleco Farbwerk GmbH Hauptniederlassung Hamburg Sch?tzenstra?e 80 22761 Hamburg http://maleco.de As you can see: Most of it is copy'n'paste. Happy testing and translating!

What counts for an open one, exactly? Hi Alex, This is a profound question, and I have to admit I struggled with the formulation of the text. Colour models cannot be proprietary, but colour systems can. The advantage of the CIE LAB and especially the CIE HLC fans is that they don't even pretend to be a colour system. Instead, they simply use the open and flexible CIE standard, which makes proprietary colour systems like Pantone superfluous.
