Scribus v1.3.4 released

From KDE Apps:

Version 1.3.4 of the open-source desktop publishing application Scribus has been released. Changes include:

  • A rewritten preview mode, allowing designers and artists to view documents as those with colour deficiencies would view a document, allowing artists to avoid colour combinations which affect legibility.
  • Major improvements to TIFF and PSD support, allowing Desktop Color Separations import
  • New styles and text capabilities include style inheritance for paragraphs, character styles and line styles. This is now managed by a new style manager palette.
  • New text layout engine, offering more appealing justification
  • New pre-press capabilities including, registration marks, crop marks, calibration bars and document meta info. These are all easily managed within the print and PDF export dialogs.

Detailed release notes in this PDF. Screenshots here; see this page for download information (source and Debian, Ubuntu, SUSE and Fedora binaries). Requires Qt 3.
