Scribus is really not intended to be used to open pdf's in the usual manner, i.e. open and read or open and edit. You can create a new Scribus document and place the pdf on the page as a graphic -- that works, but in many cases that's not what your actual purpose is. Many people seem to think Scribus is a pdf editor that they can use to open and change a pre-existing pdf file. It's not really intended for that purpose. I'm not sure that this is relevant to your situation, but I regularly use cups-pdf to create pdf files from any program that has a print function, including Scribus and OpenOffice. All pdf files are not created equal and, depending on your purpose, creating a pdf file using a different program may give you a more useful result. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com
