Once again, forgive my intrusion - this stuff is hard to learn.
Okay, the document I am attempting to create, using scribus, is NOT intended
for printing. It will be a PDF shared over the web [an e-zine]. Until now I
have always done my layouts using MS Word and am trying to learn DTP software
so I can get more creative with my layouts.
All that being said, I must also add that the graphics I use for my zine are
all simple web friendly jpegs. When loading them into scribus, unlike MS Word,
they are reduced to illegible, blurry thumbnails. I can only assume this is
because the default setting of the page/or canvas [to use an art program term]
is very high.?For example, the exact same simple jpegs, when added to an MS
Word doc - appear larger, are not blurry and can be converted to a PDF for web
quite simply. Because MS Word doesn't expect the images to be hi rez.
What I would like to know - is it possible for the page resolution - the
working area itself - to be lowered to web specs? Or should I be searching for
other software? I have read instructions about scaling images for export etc
etc... none of this is helpful if the environ they are layed out in is too high
a rez to begin with.?
Thank you for your time
