[scribus] Three questions and a suggestion

[Ian "Witty" Whitfield]

Hi All

I requested help with 'HotLinks' (ie jump to other pages) in Vol 42, 
Issue 14 of this list.

At the time I had put this down to my change from Scribus 1.3 series to 
1.4 series. I have now been looking into this in a bit more depth and 
have discovered that this was ALSO the time I "found" the script using 
'pstops' and 'ps2pdf' to reduce the size of the "Scribus PDF" file. And 
when I found how well this worked I went back and reduced the size of 
ALL my old publication files!!

And this - it seems - is the cause of my problem!!! (Apologies to the 
Scribus Team!!)

SO - My question now becomes.... Is there any OTHER way to reduce the 
size of the Scribus PDF file WITHOUT the loss of the HotLinks??

Greg asked which version of PDF I use - I convert to PDF 1.3.

Another member suggested it was a loss of Metadata during the reduction 
but don't know about this.

Any help/suggestions would be appreciated as I really need to get this 
going again in my publication as it 'automates' my content page.

Thanks a lot guys.

PS - I also asked about Aspel not finding errors but got no replies - 
any ideas please???!!!
