Beginning Scribus is the book you wish you'd read when you
downloaded Scribus for the first time. Scribus is an award-winning
page-layout program used by newspaper designers, magazine designers
and those who want to do proper page layout but not pay for an
expensive solution. It is free and Open Source, providing a useful
alternative for those who cannot afford or choose not to use Adobe
InDesign or QuarkXpress. Beginning Scribus provides you with the
skills you will need in order to use this program productively. It
demonstrates the techniques used by printers and publishers in
order to create a range of layouts and effects, and it shows you
how you can use these techniques to design everything from a flyer
to a three-fold brochure. Using the latest Scribus release,
Beginning Scribus takes you through the process of designing a
magazine from start to finish and teaches you some of the tricks of
professional page layout and design. The book also provides a
definitive guide to desktop publishing using free, open source
tools, such as GIMP for photo manipulation.
