| Summary | 0003020: Remove Gif Support | ||||
| Description | Enough said. Gifs have no place in prepress. | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||
| Patch | |||||

|
If users believe that Scribus doesn't support GIF (the support for which comes from Qt, btw), they'll usually just go and convert it to something else. Result: even worse quality. I'd prefer to warn loudly about GIF files, saying that in most cases they can't be used for print, and can't be converted to anything that can, both cases being for quality reasons. The preflight checker should warn very loudly about GIFs, too. |
|
|
I agree with craigR. Lets keep gifs with big fat warning on export. |
|
|
Peter, what now: gif removal, big fat warning, or closing? |
|
|
Should be a warning in preflight verifier at least. |
|
|
it's in devel 1.3.4 cvs "the great breakage TM" |
|
|
Subik you are only putting in the warning in preflight arent you? We should not remove import support. |
|
|
sure. only warning into PV + profile options for it etc. |
