In 1.3.x, and possibly 1.2.2.x (I can't check right now) Scribus will notice when you save and re-load the image. On older versions it'll only notice when you quit the GIMP or force it to reload the image. > 2) I can't find anything in the Print dialogue to enable Landscape > printing.

Sounds like your version of Scribus is compiled without CUPS support. > 3) The only Undo available seems to be the last object move.

I don't think it'll be back ported to 1.2.x due to the fairly extensive changes required. -- Craig Ringer
