When you visit the page mentioned in point 1, a ‘Free Download’ button will appear. Clicking this button will download the file “Free Minimal Style Shapes.zip”. After saving it to your hard drive and unzipping it, I used the file “12-minimal-style-shapes.csh” to import it into Scribus. The programme froze completely when I tried to do this. The file is distributed under a “Free for Commercial Use” licence. I have attached the file just in case it cannot be downloaded from the original location.
