craig mentions it does not. however, here are some workarounds:

1) export text from pgmaker files as text-only to place in scribus.
2) save pagemaker files as eps, or as PDF files and import these into
scribus.

you can read thru the pdf capabilities and support within scribus to get
an idea.

you could also export pdfs from scribus, merge these with the pdfs from
pagemaker, to create a 'hybrid' document where different pages in the
pdf come from different pdf-authoring software, such as pgmkr, scribus,
etc.
