Title: illegible text
Post by: 2handband on February 26, 2015, 05:06:08 AM
I'm not terribly experienced with Scribus, so I'm probably doing something stupid. But I'm typing text to insert into a Scribus document using the built-in editor, and when i click on the green arrow what gets imported to my document is all garbled and illegible like so:

What gives?

The story editor and the frame use different fonts. Looks like the font you use don't contain the glyphs for the characters you have entered.

I've tried a number of different fonts with the same result. Can you point me to a font set that will work?

hi 2handband

could you upload a sampe file somewhere and set a link? (.sla and the used font file...)
