Thanks Ole,
Does anyone have a workaround - A way of importing text into Scribus whilst keeping the style information? I'm not worried about the actual formatting (point size etc) as that is what I want Scribus for. Being able retain the style types (Heading, Sub Heading etc) associated with the text is the vital bit I'm currently missing. Chris > Ole Madsen wrote: > > I think it is a bug.
