It's great that you're greatful.

But what's even greater is that I now know the correct spelling for "greatful".

I used to spell it "grateful" which is obviously wrong because when you're greatful to someone you and him are both, like, "feeling great" .. I mean, like, you're not "grating" on anybody's nerves, and stuff.

However, there is.

You can do it, however.

Well, it's just like one is chocolate and the other one's strawberry.

@n0y0x None what so ever: They are completely different kinds of software, used for completely different things.

[n0y0x]

what advantage does scribus have over inkscape?

[MissNyine]

can you do a how to of the installation process 

[jnennemann]

I think a better way to handle the first letter is to just select it, and make the letter a larger point size... that or make the 'T' a separate element that causes word wrap in a second text frame. Three frames is a bad thing to show people.

I've had to use this lovely program however I needed to create multiple pages. However I want to combine them to create just one PDF file. Is there anyway to do this with Scribus?
