back to creating reports with scribus: the main problem i see, is the lack of real tables in scribus... but there are workarounds! they may or may not be a satisfactory solution for you. if you're indeed based in gattikon, i can give you a demonstration of scribus capabilities and show you how to replicate your reports in scribus. have a nice evening a.l.e
