Summary	0016275: Cannot insert barcode object
Description	If I click on inserting barcode object, I receive error that importing of file "bcode.ps" failed. I see there a reason - there are two backslashes in path, which isn't allowed on Windows OS. But even I had set Ghostscript setup in Preferences->Tools, even I had setup folder for scripts in Preferences, the error still remain. I read forum here and I found the same error here, but as solution was suggest to not use Ghostscript 9.22-9.36, but I'am on 9.53.3 or upgrade Scribus at 1.4.8, which I'am.
Steps To Reproduce	Insert barcode finish dialog window, it doesn't matter what symbology and what data use select (I need to set GS-1/EAN-128, but it realy doesn't matter)
Tags	No tags attached.

Patch	No

jghali 2020-10-22 17:50 administrator ~0048181	Barcode import works for me in Scribus 1.4.8 when using Ghostscript 9.26 (32bit). Later Ghostscript versions had various changes related to security which prevent us to produce barcodes as we previously did. Our development branch, noticeably Scribus 1.5.5, has had important modifications so as to re-enable production of barcodes. So Scribus 1.5.5 and 1.5.6.svn do not suffer from this issue.
