Just a note to the developers. This is a great program! I have learned how to script for Scribus with Python to pull in data from external spreadsheets.
This alone is the single most powerful tool we can use at our operation. It's much easier and much more intuitive than any off-the-shelf application I have ever used. Your support forums and wikis are extreeeeeeeemly helpful. The speed at which you respond to requests is almost inspirational. Keep up the great work. karl ________________________________________ From: scribus-request at lists.scribus.info [[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, June 16, 2010 6:00 AM To: scribus at lists.scribus.info Subject: scribus Digest, Vol 27, Issue 23 Send scribus mailing list submissions to scribus at lists.scribus.info To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://lists.scribus.info/mailman/listinfo/scribus or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to scribus-request at lists.scribus.info You can reach the person managing the list at scribus-owner at lists.scribus.info When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of scribus digest..."

However, it does NOT reference the images to the image number in the Properties for the individual images, so it is somewhat difficult to match them.

That is indeed the case, The reason is that the Properties Palette shows the name of the image frame, not the image itself. This makes sense, IMHO, since you can load another image into a frame any time. The good news is that the Image Manager has been rewritten, and should you decide the development version 1.3.7 (something many users already do), the dialog shows both: the path to an image and the name of the image frame (and a lot more, btw).

Trying to run with a current JRE is running into "java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: tool.pdf.Impose" error. - PoDoFo (on-line) appears to be unaccessible - PDFSaM is a well-done collection of PDF-tools, but lacks imposition features (in particular like n-up printing) - jPDF Tweak is a bit tricky to use, but appears to be most functional (and, by now, stable). Did not find a settings export or batch function though. Creating an imposition for an A5 folder (including 2-up printing and bleeds) with Scribus and jPDF Tweak req'es... (1) in Scribus - setting Units to "Pt" (because jPDF Tweak will need the correct numbers) - selecting "double page" document layout - setting "blend" for outer, top and bottom (NOT left) margin - export to PDF (2) in jPDF Tweak - in "Page Size" set "Scale Pages", "Portrait" and Width/Hight manually - in "Shuffle/N-up" set "Shuffle", "A4 Portrait" and "Booklet Portrait" - RUN ;-) Maybe this helps one or the other - or for creating a Scribus script. ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ scribus mailing list scribus at lists.scribus.info http://lists.scribus.info/mailman/listinfo/scribus End of scribus Digest, Vol 27, Issue 23 *************************************** The information contained in or attached to this e-mail contains confidential or privileged information.
