As of 1.3.8/1.3.9 Scribus does indeed have a "handy facility" for crop marks in the Pre-Press tab of PDF export. Not sure how it could be easier. Otherwise, this is what Louis tells us as a commercial printer, that in most cases he would rather not have crop marks in the PDF, but make them himself. Greg
