> Scribus 1.4.2 Released
> Providing Windows 64-bit Versions and a New Cross-Platform Spellchecker
> ===============================================================================
>
> The Scribus Team is pleased to announce the release of Scribus 1.4.2.
>
> While this is mostly a bugfix release, it also adds an often requested feature,
> namely true cross-platform spellchecking. Until Scribus 1.4.1, the spellchecker
> worked only on Linux and UNIX systems, including manually built versions on
> Mac OS X. As of version 1.4.2, Scribus provides a modern spellchecker, similar
> to LibreOffice and based on Hunspell, which should be easily portable across
> all supported platforms. Scribus 1.4.2 will detect existing dictionaries
> already installed by hunspell packages or LibreOffice, on the system it has
> been installed onto. Additional dictionaries are downloadable directly from
> within the Scribus Preferences via freedesktop.org. The spellchecker now also
> works within the Story Editor.
>
> Scribus 1.4.2 is also the first release of Scribus that is available as a
> 64-bit version for Microsoft Windows. These new versions allow Scribus to
> access all available memory provided by modern 64-bit computers, which
> improves performance when working on large documents. The 64-bit version will
> run on Microsoft Windows Vista 64-bit, Microsoft Windows 7 64-bit, and
> Windows 8 64-bit.
>
> In addition, Scribus 1.4.2 comes with updates to the Online Help, as well as
> updated translations.
