Manage Pictures
Pictures - shows the link status of each image. If the picture is missing in the status box you can search and locate the correct image file. This also can be used to quickly replace pictures within a document. After matching images are found, a list of images and their location is shown. You can enable a preview of each picture to make sure it is the correct one before re-linking in yor document.
Insert Special
This allows you to select extended ASCII and special characters into your document. Scribus when freetype2 is installed, can support the entire Unicode range within a given font. Without freetype2, ISO-8859-1(Latin 1), ISO-8859-2(Latin 2),ISO-8859-15(Latin 9) character sets are supported, as well exporting them in PDF. You must select the font you wish to use first.
Print Preview
This preview is a high quality preview generated from actual postscript output. You need a recent version Ghostscript (7.07+ is recommended) installed to enable this. If you have any problems viewing your files with the print preview, check for an updated version of ghostscript for your distro. Note: If you have interactive PDF features like buttons or text fields in your file, they will not display, but they will print and export to PDF properly. Ghostscript does not have support for many of the interactive PDF form features.
Scripting - Optional
The Python Scripting plug-in has its own documentation and reference manual Python Scripting Reference
