[scribus] Finding Document Fonts

[Mike Sleger]

Yes, the text editor showed where the fonts were located, but rather cryptically.  Some sort of Find Font Placements script would be useful.  Changing the defaults cleans out the "unused" fonts.  It's interesting that the fonts export with the pdf, even though there is no visible text using them.
