32-bit or 64-bit

[rowan.bradley]

I am just getting started with Scribus. I attempted to download the 64-bit version for Windows, and to install it on my Windows 8.1 PC. It chose to install it in the directory C:\Program Files (x86)\Scribus 1.4.7. This implies to me that it has installed the 32-bit version.

• Is there any reason not to install the 64-bit version on a 64-bit Windows PC?
• Assuming not, how do I do this?

Thanks - Rowan

Same question here.  And there is no indication in About Scribus to indicate which platform version is actually installed.
