Scribus won't open pdf files


Hello All

I have the latest version of Scribus (1.3.3.2) and as with previous versions I cannot seem to open a pdf document. Scribus does allow you to choose pdf as a file type to open but when I try to open a pdf file I get a message saying that "~/file.pdf is not in an acceptable format". I have been able to create pdf files with Scribus but even these files cannot be opened with the same program. I have been all over the scribus website and googled this problem but I can't find anything. Any thoughts? Perhaps I am missing a plugin or dependency?

Thanks,
Jeremy

Yeah, I don't use Scribus much, but I've had the same issue. I just assumed that it was just really picky about the specific type of pdf file, but I usually don't assume right.
