The correct settings for this are in both Adobe Acrobat Reader help and also here and with the help docs: http://docs.scribus.net/index.php?lang=en&page=toolbox1 Zoom in 400% or more to see the vectors. :-) > > > When I exported the whole thing in eps, > > this doesn't happen .. however, exporting to eps > > doesn't have the option to select the output media. > > > > Am I doing something wrong?

Scribus EPS export is very reliable - with the understanding it cannot export transparency, as the PS3 spec does not support it. Only PDF 1.4+ does. EPS files are tested via a number of ways including import into other pre-press applications and special pre-press pre-flighting tools. Very rarely an issue and sometimes it's the importer in question which has the problem, not the EPS quality. See: http://docs.scribus.net/index.php?lang=en&page=prepress Peter
