Hi Owen,

The CDR importer may be a bit shaky at the moment, especially since Scribus is still lacking the fallback option to UniConvertor compared to Inkscape. 

In general there are 3 options: 1) Open the file directly 2) Import via File > Get Vector File or 3) Right-click on canvas > Paste File.

As for doc and docx files, these aren't covered by any of those new import libraries.


HTH,

Christoph
