any other program have issue printing in color for you?

see if you can find anything in the printer setting that might make it print in a lower resolution, like a "draft" or "toner save" mode. I thinking that might have inadvertently been set for color printing.

I did find a "conserve toner" mode that prints in black and white only. is the low quality printing limited to text only? do photos and graphics print ok?

if the kvantum analogy holds, the question would be:

do you have any special theme installed in windows?

for Qt on windows?

I'm pretty sure this is in scribus, I have a similar issue when using kvantum. font lists in other programs  dont  have this issue when using kvantum. will need to figure out troubleshooting this to get you more feedback.

Ensure you have downloaded Scribus from the right place. https://sourceforge.net/projects/scribus/files/scribus-devel/1.7.0/ is the location. That installer filename you have is not correct.

Otherwise, I am not sure about the problem you mention. Likely OS related I think.

P.S.: ... and I wrongly deleted his post instead of mine. Sorry.

Just convert a polygon to and image frame
In the main toolbar, select the polygon tool (the star shaped icon) and in the properties panel for it adjust the sides to three. click ok and place on the page.
Make sure it is selected and right click, and in the popup menu select convert to, you will have a short list of options to convert the polygon, one of which is "image frame"

OSX 15, Scribus 1.6.3
As odd as this may sound, I have a need for a triangular image frame. Is there a way to do this?

thanks for any ideas!

I have just installed scribus 1.6.4 (from repository ppa:ubuntuhandbook1/scribus providing unofficial builds), and it now works just fine.
Solved.
Thanks again for your replies.
