Native Windows version release information

  • First native Windows release in version 1.3.2 as announced in the official site
  • Scribus on Windows -- See this page first for all the important install info on the native Windows version.
    • This is untested and unsupported for Win95, Win98 or WinME - Only Windows 2000 or XP
    • With the release of 1.3.2, help documentation from docs.scribus.net has been integrated with the main package across all platforms.

Note

  • Ghostscript 8.53 or newer required for EPS,PS import and printing.
    • When you first run scribus, you must go to Edit>Preferences>External Tools and change "name of executable" to wherever you have installed ghostscript to. You must choose the "gswin32c.exe" version for scribus to run! For example, set it to: "C:/Program Files/gs/gs8.53/bin/gswin32c.exe"
  • Windows 2000 requires installation of the GDI+ library from Microsoft. Another legal source for the library for those who don't use IE under Windows can be found here. Please note that it's a German site, but you will be able to find the "zum Download" button and then the "Download starten" button.
