I intended to include the font in the zip file when I did "Collect for Output." I guess it still requires a manual font install. Anyway, here's a screenshot of pages 4 and 5:

Notice the problem at the bottom of the second column of the left-hand page, and at the bottom of the first column of the right-hand page.

That workaround does fix it! Thanks. But, I'm generating over 1,500 documents using scripts (and I'll likely be adding more), so I really need an automated fix. If I adjust the frame height of my templates and regenerate my documents, that seems to move the problem to other locations in other documents. Ideally I'd be a good enough programmer to dive into the Scribus source code, but, I'm not really there. If my Python scripts could detect this and tweak the frame height as-needed I'd be okay with that.

So, for now I'll work on using Python to detect that a line should have been justified but wasn't.
