Conversion for placement into other page layout applications is <strong>not</strong> recommended and may result in reduced print quality. Ideally, a printer can handle a Scribus file natively, but is not a necessity. The most important is the ability to handle correctly newer versions of PDF without further alteration.</p> <p>This list is by no means comprehensive, but are printers who have been involved in developing Scribus and or have expressed a willingness to handle Scribus files natively or as PDF: </p> <h3>North America / Canada</h3> <p><a href="http://www.mardigrafe.com/index.html">Mardigrafe</a> Based in Montreal - Capable of working with native Scribus files.
