hanks for answering, a.l.e.

(I'm using Google Translate)

If you're referring to this:



I don't know how to work with sections, and I haven't found a tutorial in Spanish. But I'm going to work on it.

Thanks.

Well, you can use a... dotted line : - )

But I don't really understand your issue:

Scribus seems to keep the dots together...

In Scribus, there is no setting for showing the page number on one or more pages.

What you normally will do, is putting the page number "symbol" (Insert > Character > Page number) in a text frame on a master page.

If you create multiple master pages, you can apply the ones with a page number only to the pages where you want one to show up.

Once this is done, you can also control which number is on a specific page.
For this, you need to define sections in "File > Document Setup" and set the "Start" field to the first page number in that section (if it's not just the "number of the page", of course!).

Buenas noches.
Antes pido disculpas porque no sabría dónde publicar esta consulta. ¿Cómo se podría establecer en Scribus dónde, en qué página, comenzar la numeración de páginas? Gracias.

Text and Typography / Dotted spaces inside text
Last post by tombenko - August 28, 2025, 11:27:40 PM
Hello!
I would like to insert dotted line between words in a text with defined length, similar to a fill-out form. I tried to use tabs, but that didn't do what I wated to do, because all lines needed to be different sizes, and therefore some of them broke to the next line, what made the needed length fail.

Ie.:
...., who is the student of ...., proven that he/she is .... in ......
Those dots would be the dotted lines I meant.

As far as I know, languages that have composed glyphs use specific software to enter (type) them.

That software is between the keyboard and the app you're using (something like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fcitx).

No idea if any of these are usable for old Malayalam and Scribus.

I'm trying to see, if I can create a script that lets you define snippets that you can then easily insert into a Scribus document.

sorry for confusing !

the 'ററ' was an example to show you how old lipi was rendered. Never used libreoffice. But i use that drag in to panel for quick usage was very helpful for frequesnt use for example the letter'ർ' is used in most case in old lipi it merely use "  ൎ  ". for exapmple when typing നിർത്തി .. old lipi use only നിൎത്തി. that symbol never cant typed. Only way is we have to manually enter via glyph panel .


what i am saying is when glyph doesn't show full character list, it will make our job slow. ( you can see that big list at the bottom  when you using font forge .   any way it may be the issues with the font , that characters are not appear in glyph box..  any way thank you so much
