[Scribus] Re: Fonts

[bulk at katskave.com]

I am also using scribus on mac os x - installed via fink.  I can change 
the colors and shading of highlighted text using the color drop down 
list next to the paint bucket and the shading drop down to the right of 
it on text "panel" - not on the color "panel" - in the Properties 
window.  The screen shot linked to below shows the Properties window 
open to the text "panel" on the bottom right.  (What is the proper term 
for this?)

However, the colors are really odd looking in scribus but they export 
to PDF just fine.  I have a screen shot to illustrate at 
http://www.katskave.com/images/color-test-screen-shot.jpg

I know this has come up before, and I'm working on learning how the 
color stuff works, but it looks like I've got a lot to learn.  If 
someone needs a grunt to say, run X test on every possible combination 
of background and font color or something, I'm available.  I just 
haven't figured out what would be useful yet.
