Scribus 1.3.3.14 for Windows (TM) installer.
Ghostscript 8.70+ 32-bit installer - required for EPS,PS import and print preview. Ghostscript is also required for the Barcode generator, since this involves creating and displaying a vector graphic. Ghostscript can be installed before or after Scribus. It's a good idea to pay attention to where ghostscript gets installed, in case Scribus doesn't automatically find it.
256 Mb or more system memory - the more the better as Desktop Publishing requires a lot of memory for any complex layouts.
Pentium III or better CPU at 750MHz or faster speed is highly recommended for performance considerations.
GhostScript installation instructions. Installations of Scribus and Ghostscript are independent events, and either one can be installed first. If Scribus fails to find ghostscript, and you know you have it, go to File > Preferences > External Tools and search for your gs executable. After you save this location, you will need to restart Scribus to be able to use ghostscript.
Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7, Server 2003 and Server 2008 will run Scribus natively.
Recommended: Disable XP Themes - Using the "Windows Classic" theme is very strongly recommended on lower end systems. Custom Themes can cause problems and sometimes you may not be able to create new documents.
Windows 2000 Only - The GDI+ library from http://www.microsoft.com is required. As Scribus is an open source application licensed under the GNU GPL, we cannot include this file within the installer. Install this library into: "C:\Program Files\Scribus-1.3.x" or "C:\Winnt\system32" directory or other directory in your path.
Windows 98 and ME are not supported at all as there are many functions in Scribus which depend on features available only on Windows 2000 or Windows XP.
