Beginner Talk / Text box issues.
Last post by Smaggy - November 21, 2023, 03:57:30 PM
After I updated the software, now I have to make changes or additions to text boxes twice for it to stick. Is there a way to fix this?

Thanks.

I exported it to a postscript file that seemed to give a workable result, but then even the png file you provided looked OK to me



Hi. Thanks for the image. Yeah I noticed that it does not like all the cropping on my svg. I can import other svg no problem. Luckily the above fix solved my issue, for now. Thanks for the help!

Hi,

New to Scribus. Probably I am doing something wrong and I hope the community can help.

I am importing (drag and drop) a png file into Scribus. The png is an export from a svg file I created in Inkscape. Why the png is in the Scribus page, it gets very pixelated: if I open the same image with Photos or Paint the image is ok. The export is at 96 dpi. I tried to export at a bigger dpi (1200) but, when I drag and drop the image in Scribus, I got a very tiny pixelated image, totally unusable (Photos and Paint both show an super high quality image).

I tried to import the svg file but it is a Inkscape svg file and when in the Scribus page it is all dark and blue, totally unusable. If I could import the Inkscape svg file I would solve the problem.

Any help would be much appreciated!
