[Scribus] How is the support for CJK users?

[Vladimir Zborowski]

Hi,
I'm the **happy** user of scribus for Chinese.
We didn't have any problem once we had a rather reliable font (although 
the job we did was rather a simple one).
Did you try converting fonts to outline before exporting to PDF ?

PS :Peter, congratulations for the new Scribus web sites.
