Hi Fossil, On the Mac, you have 2 options. Here is one. http://aqua.scribus.net/ The installation process is well described. Please read also the known issues section. The other option will get you a fully functionnal Scribus after an installation with Fink. There are knowledgeable people on this list who will be able to help you out with it.
