Hi Silvain, please try again like this and let us know:
Create a text frame and select it. Do > file > import > get text As "Importer" select "ODT Document" (not OpenOffice Writer Document - this is what I was missing for a long time) Accept the defaults (for starters). The text should now appear inside your text frame with its formatting. I just tried it again. On my machine, I can so import odt files including their formatting (fonts, text-size, bold/regular, etc.). I am running Scribus 1.5.5 on Windows 10 pro. hth Martin On 08.03.2021 19:30, Silvain Dupertuis wrote: > Strange... > > For me, importing text from LibreOffice into a Scribus text frame copies > text only, no formatting at all. > > In some cases, when I have some formatting of a page or block of text > which is easier to do with LibreOffice, I just create the PDF from > LibreOffice and insert the PDF in Scribus : > > 1. either directly - but the text is converted into curves. > 2. either into an image frame as link, better solution > > With option 2, display on screen is a bit blurred, but printing is > perfect (providing you check the box "incorporate PDF/EPS, experimental"(1) > And if I have to modify the text, I just modify it in LibreOffice, save > it as PDF, and Sribus file is (nearly instantly) updated. > > Of course, it would be nice to be able to import text and retain > italics, title styles, and things of that kind... > > Silvain > > (1) I think one could remove the "experimental" and have this option > checked by default, as it works perfectly. > > === > > Le 08.03.21 à 15:18, Török Árpád a écrit : >> Hi there, >> >> I have a small problem.
