SCRIBUS - Adding an existing PDF file

Osac -  
 Osac -

Hello everyone,

I am a beginner with the Scribus software, and my issue is as follows: I am creating a presentation folder using Scribus, and I would like to incorporate an existing multi-page PDF document.

I haven't found a solution so far; I only get a blank page when I try to import my PDF document into Scribus.

Thank you in advance, have a good day,

O.

Scribus imports the pages of a PDF file as images. To view them in the image frame, you need to have the visualization plugin installed (Ghostview, I believe)...

Personally, I would do it differently... I would export my Scribus creation as a PDF and then add the pages from the other PDF file using the Split and Merge software..

Boff... Not particularly.. Split and Merge does not change the file structure.. it manipulates the pages unlike PDFcreator and other PDF creation software that reinterprets them and, depending on their configuration, recompresses the images and texts.

Okay, thank you for this idea, do you believe there is a risk of altering the final quality of the document or its final size?
