Scribus doesn't import from other design programs. But you can try two paths: Save the file as .eps, split it into single pages import them into a scribus document of the right dimensions and page count one page at a time. Or you can convert the Coral doc to pdf, view that in Acroread, and save the document as text, import that into a Scribus doc with sufficient pages and linked frames. That is what I would do. -- John Culleton Free list of books for self-publishers: http://wexfordpress.net/shortlist.html "Create Book Covers with Scribus" http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html
