Hi everyone, Something positive to throw out there: for a couple of months now I've been heavily using Scribus (1.3.3.12) on a 64-bit edition of Windows XP, and it works like a breeze. Previously I'd used Scribus on Ubuntu, but the program was very slow, especially when refreshing the screen. Then (about a year ago) I'd switched to regular WinXP where the lags were less of an issue. But now, with the 64-bit Windows, Scribus really rocks. Screen refresh is nearly seamless, even with larger documents, and PDF generation is also a good few times faster than on an x86 version of Windows (and my documents use *lots* of images).
BTW, this could be due to the 64-bit edition of GhostScript (8.64). And btw, it's a dual core, 2.4 GHz system, HP EliteBook, 4GB or RAM. So anyway, I recommend a 64-bit system to everyone using Scribus heavily :-) Best, Michal Blazejczyk www.zeszytykomiksowe.org
