The Scribus Team is pleased to announce the release of Scribus 1.3.3.4
This release is purely a further bug fix release to the recently 
released 1.3.3.3. 

In particular, there are a number of SVG import and rendering fixes, 
including better support for gradients in imported SVGs. Also there 
were fixes and improvements in the Story Editor and Undo/Redo and UI 
translation updates. Scribus now requires libtiff and the littlecms 
libraries.

The Scribus team has announced previously there there will be 
substantial core code changes in the next 1.3.4 and 1.3.5 releases, 
so the team has branched 1.3.3 to provide a stable usable version. 

The upcoming 1.3.4 version will include a completely rewritten text 
layout engine for more refined glyph and text layout, along with a 
host of new features including advanced transparency support, image 
effects and more. The team has decided to migrate QT 4.2.x for 
version 1.3.5. 

The Scribus Team would also like to thank - Anduin.net/?verby 
Consulting and Cardia AS for their continued hosting of all the 
Scribus websites. 

The Scribus Team would also like to thank the many end users, 
translators, testers and contributors who helped us with this 
release.
