Hi Thomas

One of my probs is that I'm trying to print documents in numerous formats that 
I have, e.g. pdf, doc, rtf, web pages, etc. Scribus complains like hell when 
I try to import a pdf telling me it's not an acceptable format so doesn't 
help there for example. But found page-crush in the repos when hunting up 
psnup. This is a little crude but doing the job for now

Thx
James
