I suppose this is a very fundamental question, is there a Scribus 1.4.4
available for Windows XP Pro?
Ready built of course, I have no idea haw to do it other wise.

Joop,
sorry if this has come up before, links to "asked questions" lead to
non-existent page and mailing list archive is not searchable,so..
I've been creating a publication using Scribus 1.4.3 (on linux mint)
and while there are bugs and quirks it's been working ok. Until now I
encountered a major problem: when I open the document it opens up just
fine but all the pages seem to be empty. Except they are not, when are
click around my objects are there, they are just not visible anymore.
I have four separate files, each consisting about 20 pages and two of
them are experiencing the same problem. The other two work just fine.
Any suggestions what I can do?? Thanks.
.mika

Have you accidentally switched the "visible" column on/off for the
"layers"?
Just an idea/suggestion to check.

Hello,
When creating complex pages with photo's and colored shapes, I often
would like to raise my grid (guide lines) to the top to align with that.
Is this possible?
Thanks

It also might be worth seeing if there might be a behavior/data
persistence during a session with Scribus. For example, if the last time
I used the generator it was for QR Codes and used a particular entry for
the text, it would make sense to have that as a starting point the next
time I use it. This might satisfy the need the original poster had in
mind.
I've begun looking at qrcode.py and while it seems that yes, one could
figure out a script in Scribus to make use of this, you would need some
recursive ability to satisfy the workflow desire of the original post.
What I can envision might be useful, helpful, and give some
functionality outside of what Barcode Generator has to offer would be
making use of the command 'qr' that is built into qrcode.py.
For example,
qr "http://www.scribus.net" > address.png
makes your QR Code as a PNG file. Of course, with dozens of codes, you
are not looking forward to doing this dozens of times (you still have to
import to image frames, though this should be easily scriptable), but I
can easily imagine semi-automatically writing a shell script to make a
large number of patterned QR codes. An additional benefit you get from
this is a future reference that clearly shows which address goes with
which file. Surely you will scan each code with some device, but
hopefully not more than once. The filename might give a clue by itself,
but this has limitations.
Part of the weirdness of QR Codes is their variability. I made a code
with barcode generator using the default 'http://scribus.net', then made
one with the qr command and they didn't look much alike, yet were both
scanned correctly by my phone!
Greg
P.S.
For those using Linux that want to check out qrcode.py, google it,
download the file, then uncompress/extract. Inside the generated
directory, run the command
sudo python setup.py install
and you're done. You should immediately be able to use the qr command.
Documentation exists but is sparse.

uniform distance between objects. I guess it must be another way and
that
the role of the baselines is to maintain the alignment of different text
blocks.
I found that an option would be create a grid which corresponds with the
baseline grid: http://forums.scribus.net/index.php?topic=1076.0 (I do
not
know if it's a good idea)
I'm using Scribus in a weekly newspaper http://periodicoeleslabon.com/
