Scribus Friendly Printers Once you have your masterpiece created, sometimes the next step is getting is your file commercially printed. What defines a "Scribus Friendly Printer" ? First and foremost the ability to handle PDF directly without conversion to other formats. Conversion for placement into other page layout applications is not recommended and may result in reduced print quality. Ideally, a printer can handle a Scribus file natively, but is not a necessity. The most important is the ability to handle correctly newer versions of PDF without further alteration.
