<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" ><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;">Any other gurus out there with thoughts on this problem? The documentation says that 1.3.3.14 is the lastest stable version of Scribus, so I'm a little reluctant to try a later version, especially since once a file is saved on a later version I can't go backwards to an earlier version.<BR><BR>--- On <B>Mon, 2/21/11, John Culleton <I><john@wexfordpress.com></I></B> wrote:<BR>
