Scribus 1.4.3 Released, Providing a Port to Haiku OS, New Professional Color Tools and QR Barcode Support

The Scribus Team is pleased to announce the release of Scribus 1.4.3. Like the previous version, this is mostly a bugfixing release, but there are also some important enhancements:

  • Scribus has been ported to the Haiku operating system. For more information see: http://wiki.scribus.net/canvas/Installing_Scribus_on_Haiku
  • The Barcode Writer has been updated and supports many more barcodes, including QR.
  • The Galaxy Gauge™ color matching system and color tools have been included.
  • New color palettes from government agencies (Canada, Germany, The Netherlands, United Kingdom) have been included.
  • More Open Source color palettes have been included.
  • Scribus now supports Pillow as an alternative to the Python Imaging Library.
  • Improvements to the build system.
  • Improvements to the Preflight Verifier.
  • Memory management in connection with the new Hyphenator has been optimized.
  • The Short Words plug-in now supports Danish.
  • Many Documentation updates.

Most important bugfixes:

  • Disabled hyphenation on some Linux distributions is working again.
  • Some unit conversion issues have been fixed.
  • Display issues related to Ubuntu's Unity interface have been fixed.
  • Some fixes to wrong or irritating UI behavior.
  • The A4 page size limit of TeX-rendered graphics in Render Frames has been removed.

For a complete list of changes see: http://bugs.scribus.net/changelog_page.php?version_id=86 and http://lists.scribus.net/pipermail/scribus-commit

The Scribus Team would like to thank Giovanni Mugnai for porting Scribus to Haiku, as well as Christian Hitz for updating the Barcode Writer.

We are also especially grateful to Scientific Illustration Services, Inc. (USA) and Mike Wofsey for making the Galaxy Gauge™ color matching system and related color tools available to Scribus users under an Open Source licence and for joining the group of Scribus's Special Supporters.
