    2 
    3 Scribus is an open-source program that brings award-winning
    4 professional page layout to Linux/Unix, MacOS X, OS/2 and Windows
    5 desktops with a combination of "press-ready" output and 
    6 new approaches to page layout.
    7 
    8 Underneath the modern and user friendly interface, Scribus 
    9 supports professional publishing features, such as CMYK color,
   10 separations, ICC color management and versatile PDF creation.

   12 The Scribus Team is very pleased to welcome a release on the OS/2 &
   13 eComStation platform. We would like to thank Paul Smedley who has
   14 taken the time to port Scribus itself, and those who have ported the
   15 other supporting libraries to OS/2. We will endeavour to find and
   16 resolve issues specific to the platform when they are discovered,
   17 specifically relating to levels of supporting libraries such as Qt.
   18 
   19 - Supports OS/2 Warp4(R) and eComStation(TM)
   20 - Requires libc061.dll - which is available from
   21   ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/gcc/libc-0.6.1-csd1.zip
   22 - GhostScript is a recommended installation as per the standard
   23   Scribus install instructions. Set the PostScript interpreter in
   24   Scribus' preferences to point to your installation. Example: the
   25   AFPL GhostScript executable from their gs854os2.zip is gsos2.exe.
   26   This package includes install instructions (note the GS_LIB 
   27   environment variable).
   28 
   29 Known issues:
   30 - Printing support is not complete, but PDF export is, you can easily
   31   print via Acrobat Reader or another PDF viewer as a temporary 
   32   workaround.
   33 - The Qt released on OS/2 is quite old and issues may arise due to
   34   this fact.
