Here is a report I made using scribus and inkscape.
Next time I 'll try to link pdfs in image frames for smoother integration between the two softwares.

Reviving this thread to share the solution I was looking for so long.
So all you have to do is create an image frame, hit Ctrl+i (or right click > Content > Import Image), and choose a pdf file. You can choose an svg file but it will render as a raster image in your final export.
When it is time to export, in the dialog window that pops up go to General > File Options and check the box next to "Embed PDF & EPS files (EXPERIMENTAL!)" to keep your embedded pdf as vector.
This was the feature I missed the most in scribus, it is a great surprise !

select the text frame containing "bribes de mémoire", then go to 'properties' ➜ 'line' ➜ 'type of line' and select a continuous line instead of the dotted line.

That works but it shouldnt as that line style should only be applied to the text frame as that is the property you are editing, and not the stroke of the text. Text stroke is getting the stroke style from the place. Developers take note! ;)

It appears that outlining fonts is broken. A temporary solution is to convert that text to outline  Select the text, in the dropdown menu, select Item/Convert to/Outline.
Will produce the desired result when output as a PDF. This will at enable you to finish the project.

Hopefully the outline text option will be fixed shortly.
