so the only difference is, that on your side the font "Century Schoolbool
L Medium Italic" is working fine? I'll check it out here again, maybe it
was a space with the arial/italic font bug that was killing me there.
Where did you get the 0.9.8pre release from? Or is that one only for
developers? Anyway, tomorrow evening I'll retest, check the qt version
(but the only thing changed on that machine was the scribus version) and
try to provide a sample scd file.
