I tried doing a 5 page chapter from a book in 1.3.3.4. Unfortunately whenever I imported a grahic it would carsh with no message. So I downloaded, compiled and installed 1.3.3.6. Now the crashing goes away.
I still have some questions, mostly centering around text. I have a "story" that goes on for about 5 pages. 1. When I click on hyphenation all the text disappears! But after several Ctl-Z's I got it back with a few hyphenations. I need a step-by step on hyphenations. 2. TeX automatically squeezes out all extra spaces between words. Can I get Scribus to do this? HOw? 3. The text came in with lots of " instead of left and right quotes. Is there a quick way to get all these replaced? 4. Scribus seems to treat each carriage return as the start of a new paragraph. How do I merge these lines together into a single paragraph in story editor? 5. A new customer sends me files in a Mac-only format with the suffix .cwk. Will my Linux Scribus import such files? 6. If I build up the book story by story in Scribus, what is the best way to merge them together? I want each story to start on a new page of course. -- John Culleton Able Indexing and Typesetting Precision typesetting (tm) at reasonable cost. Satisfaction guaranteed. http://wexfordpress.com
