Hi- it wasn't until I saw the readme in the Scribus package that I learned  
GhostScript might be needed. I found it at wisc.edu but the file is called  
gs863w32.exe, which doesn't conform to the readme 'exact file name' cautions.  
also that Scribus is now already installed & on a Vista machine...

I have a Samsung CPL300 laser printer, and its unclear if I need Postscript  
capability.
I'd like the readme to be updated to a current step-by step, with a link to  
other files required by 1st time (trial) users.

My essential interest is to structure a small town newspaper- but in both  
print & online. It is not clear if Scribus can do that in a practical sense.

thanks much for your time!
