Post by: nr1 on May 05, 2012, 05:53:38 PM
Hi,

Would be very appreciated if someone could upload such a version.

Colleagues, I am facing a publishing deadline and would just love to be able to publish using Scribus instead of having to use In-Design.  AS I learned from your forums, 1.5vsn successfully imports In-Design idml format files, which is the In-Design export format.  But of course earlier versions of the program such as I have installed can't read them.  So a kind user converted my blank template files already but now I can't open them!  To tell you the truth, I don't know if there is 1.5vsn for Windows. Is the code at the bottom of these steps useable in Windows?

If you go here:
http://www.scribus.net/canvas/Scribus (http://www.scribus.net/canvas/Scribus)
and click on Development Release http://sourceforge.net/projects/scribus/files/scribus-devel/ (http://sourceforge.net/projects/scribus/files/scribus-devel/) it doesn't seem to show any 1.5vsn at all.  It seems to show an old development release (?) at the 1.4 level. 
This link, however, seems to have some information:
http://wiki.scribus.net/canvas/Download (http://wiki.scribus.net/canvas/Download)
You presumably follow this link:

That is where I'm stumped!  What do I do now?  I'll post this to forum as well.  Any help much appreciated! - Mike m.a.dover@csuohio.edu

Files created with 1.5 can not be read by earlier versions, so it wouldn't work.

Yes, I have 1.4 installed now and can't read the 1.5svn files that another member of this forum converted from In-Design for me. Thus I want to download and install 1.5svn, but I'm stumped about how to do that , once I get to the final link in my June 4 post.

There is no installer for 1.5 since it's not a finished version. 1.5 is work in progress.
