Many thanks Steve.

Unfortunately this hasn't fixed it though, so at the moment it looks as 
if this is consistent across

     Win XP sp 2, Scribus 1.3.3.10
     Win XP sp 2, Scribus 1.3.3.11

and following more testing,

     Win 2000 sp 4, Scribus 1.3.3.9


Interestingly to me, Scribus 1.3.3.9 doesn't report any version issue, 
even though the SLA file contains

     <SCRIBUSUTF8NEW Version="1.3.3.10" >

Is that expected ?

If anybody wants to play with the file, I'd be happy to upload it.


Cheers, J/.
