It's easy to find out -- remove that image and see if the problem goes away. If it does, you have found the problem. I have found that Scribus will crash if you're using bad graphics (which can sometimes be fixed by loading the graphic into Gimp and re-saving it) or bad fonts (the $1.95 for 1500 fonts CD's that you find for sale in junk shops). I suspect you have either a bad font or a bad graphic. The way to find out which is to remove the elements one at a time until the problem goes away. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com
