For my research purposes i am in need of preparing a questionnaire in Kannada. I was a regular user of Scribus, but never thought of Indian Language support in Scribus. I tried typing in Kannada Scribus with no success. (Same as http://wiki.scribus.net/canvas/Complex_Script_Functionality#Language.2C_Script_.26_Language_System_tags) Is anybody using Indian languages in Scribus? Any suggestions? Thanks...
I don't known the answer to your question, but I think more information is needed.
What version of Scribus are you using?
What input method are you using?
What fonts are you using? (Note that the story editor font and the canvas font are different.)
hi,
you could try this version of scribus:

Thanks to all the replies. i am using Scribus 1.4.0 on ubuntu 13.04. i have downloaded the malayalam and kannda fonts from the repository.I am not sure about the input method (tech.details.) i use the keyboard lay out to malayalam and kannada, how can i know which input method i am using, and if that is the point, which input method should i use to get indian language support?
as said, go and fetch the version developed by ATPS!
here you can find a screenshot of the possible result:
