Hi Julian!

Scribus PS import converts all text to vectors by design. The rationale
behind 
this is to keep the exact layout of the imported EPS. This would not be
possible
with Scribus text object, since they would reflow the text.

The second problem is that text in PS file looses its article structure.
There might
be additional word breaks and the sequence of lines would have to be guessed
(think of a two column layout, Scribus would have to figure out that there
are
two columns and then put the words into the right order).

Maybe a future version of psimport will have an option for the thing you
want,
but I can't make any promises about that.
