Today I reported two issues on
bugs.scribus.net. I am delighted how fast
jghali gave feedback on it. He closed my first report because he claims it has been resolved in a newer version. So far, so good.
My
second bug report is a bit trickier. I didn't use hyphens properly since I didn't know how they were meant to be used. But the second aspect in this report wasn't on glyph extension which
jghali was referring to in his reasoning for closing the issue.
Since he pointed me to this forum to ask any "beginner questions" I registered and try my luck here.
To me extending or narrowing of letters is rather different from letter spacing since I normally want to keep the specific letter form but might want them to be a little more spread out or tighter together. In fact I admit a mixture of both would be great to have at our disposal.
Maybe I just didn't find it yet and a feature does actually exist in Scribus:
Can I define a range for letter spacing that Scribus would automatically use to set the best value for any given line?
