Hi guys,
After completing one of my first complete flyers in Scribus, I am
finding it quite enjoyable to use.  There are several little niggling
things I would like to see changed or fixed, but overall, I think we can
count Scribus to be quite capable.  One thing, that instantly comes to
mind is whenever I create a text box, why don't I have the ability to
make it outlined, instead of drawing another box to fit around it?  I
would like rounded corner capability as well with all the features of
the box tool.

Another thing I found after exporting as both PDF Acrobat 4 & 5 is that
KGhostview, Ghostview or GV cannot view the file in it's entirety.  The
error below appears, so I am suspecting a problem in Ghostscript.  Adobe
reader displays the file fine.
