No, there isn't. I'm not really fond of the idea anyway personally - I think mailing lists are typically a much better way to do things. There are already a lot of places to keep track of when it comes to communication about Scribus, so I'm not sure it'd really we warranted to add another one anyway. > -I'm trying to upload a pdf generated with scribus to vistaprint.com > but they complain about the helvetica font not being supported by > them.

Now, this _is_ odd. I've been wondering where the "phantom" fonts in Scribus's exported PDFs come from before, but never looked into it. I just exported a *blank* document, and Acrobat Reader thinks the resulting PDF uses ZapfDingbats and Helvectica (but does not embed them). I'd be interested in knowing why this happens myself, as I don't have the time to dig into the source to find out right now. -- Craig Ringer
