Look at the Shape tab on the Properties dialog, and try adjusting the Bottom property. I am now using Scribus 1.3.4, so I can't tell for sure, but it seems to me that in 1.3.3.x, this would reduce the space somewhat, though not to zero. Anyway, the problem seems to be fixed in 1.3.4. -- Matt Gushee
