> As of last night, the merging of the separately developed Complex Text
> Layout (CTL) branch with trunk has begun, which will take some time to be
> completed. If you were brave enoough to start a project with 1.5.3svn, you

> with earlier versions of Scribus 1.5.3svn may not be rendered or exported
> correctly due to missing parts of the completely rewritten text layout
> engine.

> The temporary inconvenience is worth it, though, because once it's finished,
> it will not only enable Scribus to finally render complex scripts correctly.
> It will also provide some tools to switch writing directions for mixed text
> layouts. It will also enable the use of advanced OTF features in future
> Scribus versions.
