[scribus] Scribus 1.5svn font

[wena-parry at talktalk.net]

My O.S. is Windows 7. on a 65 bit computer. I have been working on the 1.5svn Scribus. 

I find it export a file to PDF  and the text font New Times Roman dose not export correctly. I have attempted with other fonts but but I get the same problem. Is there a working update that I might see if I get a result. 

In the PDF my graphics are O.K. but the font us all jumbled up.

Any advice please??

Wena D. Parry.

That's bad luck since numbering is clearly not the feature to start discovering scribus with.

fwiw: if you had a hard time figuring out how to get the manual 
bullets/numbering to work, and you are not keen to be patient in front 
of unfinished products, i would not recommend you to download a 
development version of scribus (until you're proficient with the stable one)

in 1.5.1 bullets and numbering are feature that are still being tested 
and at my knowledge they have not been extensively been used in production.

of course, i've been working with 1.5.x for years ... but there were not 
only tears of joy...

good luck!

And bullets and numbering were externally developed and due to issues we almost removed them. We've got concrete plans for 1.5.2 and 1.5.3, at some point we will have to fix bullets and numbering properly.
