yes, 1.3.5*svn* *is* slow... the rendering engine is being rewritten, and it's not finished in any way. the goal is getting 1.4 (the future stable release) working fast *and* with all the basic features, somebody would expect from a modern dtp app (plus many uniqueness to scribus!!) inbetween, development versions may be slow... ciao and thaks for your patience! a.l.e p.s.: > Anyway, if there's no simple fix, I suppose I can split the book up a > bit. well, this was the simple fix... :-)
