from point of use
DTP is kind of page processing
and WP is a part of it.

Specialy when there is no elaborate word (& character) styles
import abilities in Scribus.

thanks for your kind answer...

15 years ago I was a professional programmer ingeneer
(programming with C++ as windows emerged).
It might be one reason why I dont take all answers for bible speak.

My experience in DTP is 10 year old amateurish
and now professionnal.

I understand this willingness.

Generaly writing, not understating the problems and weaknesses
would help commmunicate with the crew
though.

Is there a way to diagnose more precisely a driver problem ?
