[Scribus] Problems with Scribus.

[Paul]

Hi,

Nope. Unless you run it from the console, you don't get any bug reports.
Without knowing the error, it's impossible to know what caused the
crash.

> 2. When I work in Scribus, fonts don't show up.

Have you followed the guides on the Scribus documentation site?

> 3. Couldn't find where I could adjust text vertically within a text box.
> Is this capable of being done in Scribus?

Not currently.

Not seen that one, but you can alter the spacing and gap between the
text.

> Any ideas?

Without knowing more on (1) and if you've followed my recommendations on
(2), then not really, sorry.
