I am using Scribus to publish our quarterly magazine of 20 pages in CMYK. The December issue in Scribus 1.4.4 worked with no problems at all, except for the steep learning curve on my part.
I upgraded to Scribus 1.4.5 before starting work on the March edition.
There are two frustrating issues:
When I am reviewing, editing and saving I am finding that the program freezes. Apart from the indication that I am on a particular page I cannot select items or edit them. Sometimes Scribus corrects itself after a while but on other occasions I have to close the programme and start again. This is particularly annoying when my editor, by phone, and I are going through the magazine making corrections.
This morning while we were tidying up the magazine Scribus just shut itself down with no warning and for no apparent reason. The mouse pointer was nowhere near any closure buttons.
Any help you can give would be much appreciated as Scribus is an impressive program and a great advantage to our charity which could not afford InDesign, Quark or similar.
Thank you in anticipation
Valerie
