When I edit the photo in gimp and go to save with the standard settings, the exif data do not show up on my pbase website. This is a new behavior as exif data have always shown up before. the opensuse team that is maintaining gimp/ufraw does not believe that exif data is important to the project and do not include support for exif. I questioned stbinner at suse dot de several years ago (iirc) and was imformed. Perhaps several questions/comments from different users would convince them otherwise. Maintainers names appear in the changelog comments. I just checked the build logs for more recent Suse versions and ufraw does definitely have exif support.

[Gimp-developer] Announce Scribus 1.3.4 - Open Source Page Layout
The Scribus Team is pleased to announce the release of Scribus 1.3.4 Антон Almost one year in the making, this release brings Scribus to a new plateau in professional print capabilities, innovative features and a completely re-written text layout engine. Among the major new features in 1.3.4: * A rewritten preview mode which allows designers and artists to view layouts on screen as readers with color viewing deficiencies would view a document. Thus, this enables a designer to avoid color combinations which affect legibility. * Major additions to TIFF/PSD support. This includes the ability to use clipping paths in TIFF and PSD files to allow text wrapping.In addition, Scribus now can import special flavors of EPS exported from Photoshop known as Desktop Color Separations (version 1.0 and 2.0). Layers, blend modes, Duo,Tri and Quadtone PSD files are now also supported. * The new styles and text capabilities include style inheritance for paragraphs, character styles and line styles. This is now managed by a new style manager palette. * The new text layout engine has a multitude of enhancements for vastly better more appealing justification, including the use of optical margins and more sophisticated word spacing algorithms. *New pre-press capabilities including, registration marks, crop marks, calibration bars and document meta info. These are all easily managed within the print and PDF export dialogs. * Color management enhancements including better CMYK CMYK conversions. * A rewritten and more capable Scrapbook * Support for patterns; both bitmap and vector * A more capable Align and Distribute Palette * Extended Multiple Copying *New transparency features including blend modes for layers and individual objects * A new cross-platform Icon set from the Tango Project Detailed release notes: (EN) http://www.scribus.net/releases/1.3.4/Scribus-1.3.4.EN_releasenotes.pdf (DE) http://www.scribus.net/releases/1.3.4/Scribus-1.3.4.DE_releasenotes.pdf Downloads: Source and some rpms: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=125235 Upstream Debian/Ubuntu repo: http://debian.scribus.net Ubuntu users are advised to see: http://wiki.scribus.net/index.php/Getting_Scribus_on_Ubuntu/Kubuntu_up_and_running Fedora 5/6 RPMS: http://software.opensuse.org/download/home:/mrdocs/Fedora_Extras_6/repodata/ http://software.opensuse.org/download/home:/mrdocs/Fedora_Extras_5/repodata/ Opensuse RPMS 10.0, SLE 10,10.1,10.2: http://software.opensuse.org/download/home:/mrdocs/ MacOSX: http://aqua.acribus.net Windows 2000/XP: http://windows.scribus.net The Scribus Team would also like to thank - Anduin.net/Øverby Consulting and Cardia AS for their continued hosting of all of the Scribus websites.

I would like to point out some showstoppers in the hope that we can get some help with them. There is also the list of bugs on the 2.4 milestone in Bugzilla and this mail somewhat overlaps with that. But it also mentions a few things that are not in Bugzilla (but probably should be). Here's a small list of outstanding items for GIMP 2.4, from the top of my head, incomplete and subject to discussion: Finish rectangle tools The rewritten rectangle tools (rect and ellipse select as well as crop) are getting better, but there are still some regressions (mainly in the Crop tool, see Bugzilla) and the tool options still need an overhaul. Would be nice if we could come up with a decent tool options UI proposal, then implement it. Finish color management Main feature missing here is giving the display filters access to the image's color profile. As soon as that is implemented, we should have a prepress professional review the functionality. I would also like to further improve the color management preferences. In this case it seems like a good idea to try to get something that resembles the Photoshop color management configuration in terms of terminology and policies. snipped Sven I have been playing with the color management in CVS and it is getting there for sure. My thinking is the choice of controls and terminology should be guided by the 3 modes you have. 1. No color management means that and everything assumes RGB with no display compensation. 2. Managed Display - To me mode this should be used for web graphics and users with the large majority of inkjets which are indeed RGB devices in that they expect RGB data. 3. Press Simulation - Exactly that. Simulating CMYK Printers of all kinds. In the case of #3, you could argue that having a choice to enable some form of gamut warning. Mind you gamut warnings are just that. I would not enable this for # 2 One thing which needs fixing is profile locations. Finding and setting the profiles is not obvious on Linux On Linux/*nix, we've outlined those directories on openicc and most of it is taking hold as a spec. This should be a recursive search as some profile packages are now available for distros and they sometimes separate RGB and CMYK locations. Windows NT and Win9x have different default locations, but they should be searched automatically IMO. The trickier bit for me is how you handle importing CMYK images. I just did a test and it detects there is an embedded icc profile and asks correctly if I want to replace it or keep it. However, it is CMYK, yet asks to replace sRGB with a differently named SRGB profile and the console outputs: '** (lcms:16300): WARNING **: Attached color profile is not for RGB color space.' My thinking is that any CMYK image imported should have a simple warning that it is not currently supported and a best effort conversion is made to RGB. File Properties might be good place also to note if a given image has an embedded profile. I'm game

Thanks for your praise - I always like hearing back about the articles. I'm forwarding your mail on to the GIMP developers list, since honestly I've never developped anything for the GIMP on Windows, and I don't know where you might be able to get a hild of a gimptool-2.0 for the platform. The build environment for GIMP development on Windows is a bit tricky - I've bailed out a couple of times after getting all the dependencies installed because of some linking issues - but if anyone can point you in the right direction, they're probably on the gimp-dev list. Cheers, Dave. Hi, Here is how Scribus launches GIMP on Win32 from within Scribus: The default on windows is: C:/Program Files/GIMP-2.0/bin/gimp-win-remote.exe gimp-2.2.exe This will then either start a new instance of gimp or use the currently running version of gimp. This is the command you would need to use for the Start Run dialog. If I am wrong, I hope someone corrects this. Hope that helps.

It is not like you can afford turning away any helping hands. People are usually proud of belonging to a helpful community, and are turned away by impolite answers like this one. Um, perhaps it is a matter of tone, but knowing Alexandre and working with him on projects, he is a: very professional b: not agressive with users. In defense of the GIMP team, they are (unfairly IMO) criticized by those who are not attuned to the actual state of development and their stated goals. Call it support fatigue if you will, but these kinds of issues have been discussed to death and the GIMP developers have clearly, in many places, stated their goals and their reasoning behind it. I think Alexandre was rightly trying to point you in a direction which might be more productive to achieve your wishes.

Undo also has object specific capabilities. The number of undo/redo steps can be set in the preferences. * Revised document and application preferences. Extensive attention has been placed on making preferences easier to use with document and application preferences distinctly separated. * Scribus now has scratch space which can be used to store objects partially or fully off the page. * Scribus can now generate Tables of Contents, based on user definable/selectable attributes. * Scribus now has its own built-in pre-flight verifier for printing or exporting to PDF. The pre-flighter is designed to look for issues which might cause problems when printing or exporting PDF. * More professional DTP features like adding ciceros for measurement units and support. Scribus now has true facing page support and page objects such as images can span them. * Scribus now has more extensive support for CMYK images, as well as clipping paths in TIFF files, CMYK-JPEG, as well as new support for native Photoshop ® PSD files. 16-bit RGB/CMYK TIFF and PSD support will follow soon. ICC color management of for these image formats is also upgraded. * New image effect features including tinting, greyscaling, blurring, colorizing and sharpening. * Scribus 1.3.0 now supports PDF 1.5 features including layers in PDF. * Scribus 1.3.0 uses an intermediary file format based on the Scribus 1.2.x format. The new format to finally replace this intermediary format is in design and development stages and its implementation will begin soon.
