PDF Export

I had the problem that the PDF generated by Scribus 1.4.0 was corrupted and could not be displayed by many PDF viewers. It also caused trouble when being printed. I could solve this problem by exporting a Post Script (PS) file instead and converting to PDF:

ps2pdf -sPAPERSIZE=a0 myfile.ps

The PAPERSIZE option was important, because otherwise the resulting PDF would only show a portion of the original PS file, which was in DIN A0 format.
