<li>Windows users are <strong>strongly encouraged</strong> to install the latest <a href="http://ghostscript.com">Ghostscript</a> <strong>before</strong> installing Scribus. This greatly simplifies setting up EPS importing. Ghostscript is a mature PostScript interpreter and is essential for EPS import and print preview in Scribus.</li>
<li>Because of the new enhanced menu/keyboard shortcuts code, 1.2.x keyboard short cuts are not migrated and will be recreated once on the first launch 1.3.x. There are vastly more keyboard shortcuts and they can be exported to use on other machines if customized.</li>
-<li>On initial launch, 1.3.5 will offer to inherit preferences from any existing prior version, but store them separately, so you can run 1.3.3.x in parallel with 1.3.5. </li>
+<li>On initial launch, 1.3.5+ will offer to inherit preferences from any existing prior version, but store them separately, so you can run 1.3.3.x in parallel with 1.3.5+. </li>
<li>You <strong>can</strong> install both versions in parallel and run them at the same time. The only caveat is to install them using different prefix/ directories e.g 1.3.3.x in /usr/local and 1.3.5 in /opt or $home/bin. You can use the <code>-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=</code> argument to configure to set where Scribus should be installed.</li>
<li>Many of the new or revised GUI functions have extensive tool tips. To enable tool tips, make sure <strong>Help > Tooltips </strong>is checked. </li>

<li>Much more extensive support for CMYK images, including clipping paths in TIFF and JPEG files, as well as extensive support for native Photoshop ® PSD files. 16 bit CMYK TIFF and PSD support will follow soon. Use of CMYK images is recommended with color management properly setup and active for best on screen appearance. CMYK-JPEG is also supported. </li>
<<!--li>There is a new imposition tool which allows you to create booklets. This enables for example printing 2 pages of A5 on A4 paper.</li>-->
<li>The other new major addtion is the new latex import capabilties. This is explained in detail in the online help.</li>

<p>To use Scribus in your native language be sure that the environment variable LC_ALL, LC_MESSAGES, LANG, Qt locale, OR the command line option of -l/--lang <lang> is set correctly. This also can be changed in the preferences and takes effect immediately.</p>

<p>Activating Color Management <strong>requires</strong> installation of CMYK and RGB ICC profiles. Grey scale icc profiles in images are not supported in this release. Scribus comes with 2 icc profiles only to ensure color management works immediately. These profiles are not sufficient to provide correctly working color management. Please see the included help files and <a href="http://docs.scribus.net">http://docs.scribus.net</a> for details.</p>
<!--<p>If you have a 64-bit version of Qt, sometimes ./configure will not detect the 64-bit version headers. Try : <pre>./configure --enable-libsuffix=64</pre> to test for 64-bit versions of libraries.</p>-->
