Hi all, first post to this list from me! Sorry to dig out this old topic. I subscribed to this list in February, and haven't looked into the Scribus folder for weeks! :paperbag: But to my defence, I should say that I use Scribus more often, than I follow this list. I'm an industrial design student, and I use Scribus for four semesters for presentation charts, documentations and PDF-screen-presentations. The applications teached/used at school are InDesign and Quark, which I never enjoyed at home, since I'm running Linux only. The migration from OpenOffice to Scribus helped the quality of my documents and my own workflow :) I found Scribus easy to learn at the beginning (I installed the one version, before SuSE included it - in 8.2?), and I like following the progress of development. Many useful features were included since then, and I'm looking forward to many others :) I've even joind the bugtracker last weekend to give feedback on needed features. I'd like to use this occasion to thank all developers and contributors to Scribus, and I intend to follow it in future! cheers, Bodo
