Version 1.6.0 of the Scribus
desktop-publishing application has been released. The
list of new features is rather long and includes a user interface overhaul,
improvements for HiDPI screens, new scripting commands, lots of
typographical improvements and features, a new picture browser for
graphical asset management, support for more gradient types, and much more.

Scribus 1.6.0 is the long awaited release in the next stable series,
replacing 1.4.8 and development versions in the 1.5.x series. This version
has been in development for some years and contains thousands of
enhancements and fixes across all areas of the program. It has more
features, is faster, and is more stable.
