    Yep, that's got it!

    Absolutely marvelous, I'll use this version in XP until the stable version for Linux is available. Thanks and congratulations to all the developers, this is out of the top drawer.

    It's getting there - especially now it can embed EPS/PDFs into the PDF output without rasterising. Still has some fairly basic bugs which is a pity, but it's improving. What's the problem with Vista fonts? The resulting PDFs aren't searchable and seem to render a bit slowly - otherwise this is starting to look horribly good!

    I've been using scribus since 1.3.3 professionally, and I have to say it's come a long, long way even since then. It has lots of little quirks, but once you learn to use it, it's a very powerful tool, providing press-ready PDFs for both home and professional DTP use. Congratulations to the developmers!

    Scribus is better and better with each release!!!
    Even if it is not mature enought for professional use (yet), it has a bright future.
