it has been posted to the bug tracker as http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=10734 and jean found out that the problem was related to a difference in the arial font installed: """ The Arial font used are different on Windows and Ubuntu. The Arial font file is 761kb on Windows, only 270kb on Ubuntu. Ubuntu ship a very old version of Arial (2.82) whereas Windows 7 ships version 5.10. Copy Windows Arial font to your Ubuntu installations. *DO NOT* copy the Ubuntu version to Windows fonts directory. """ have a good night a.l.e
