how to convert .sla from scribus 1.6.1 ver to 1.5.5 ver

[renato07]

Hi,
I know it is not possible, but I try...
Is it possible to save a file saved with the last version of scribus (1.6.1) in the previous version (1.5.5)?

thank you

... no but: you can try to open the .sla file with a text editor (that lets you directly edit the xml in the .sla file) and replace 1.6.1 by the version you have.

this will (currently!) work with one of the more recent 1.5.x version... maybe also with 1.5.5.

Great! I've open it with emacs, found the string 1.6.1, converted in 1.5.5, Now I open it with 1.5.8 ver and it works (I've tried the 1.5.5 version but it crash on my Mac...

thank you

GREAT, that works.
I have the problem, because 1.6.1 is NOT stable, it crashes while trying to export to PDF
