[scribus] Gimp/Scribus issues

[Jeffrey Silverman]

What does "hoping its the right size" mean? What are you trying to accomplish.

You can do a fair amount of cropping and image nudging in Scribus.

Also, if this document is going to print, make sure any images you use
are big enough resolution-wise. Say, general rule of thumb, like
1500px wide minimum for an image that is goint to print at around 4"
wide.  (I don't like using the term "dpi" because it is so often
misused and misunderstood)
