The real feature who would be VERY nice would be
*an imposition feature at PDF export* - with the different options for
imposition
at least for double-pages booklets
including crop marks only around the A3 groups of A4 pages for an A4 booklet,
for example.
I need this for different brochures and I manage to do it with other tools
but it is somehow painful...
As for the need of juste presenting a brochure side by side,
I still think the easiest way is, as I explained it in another message
* create a blank A3 (landscape) document (B)
* insert A4 frames in the A3 pages of B (easy to do it for a pair of A4 frames
and copy
the A3 page)
* export the main document (A) as separate pages
* insert the PDF pages in the A4 frames of B
* export B in PDF, and we have a presentation of A on double-pages side by side
This can be done in the order of viewing or in the order of printing
(imposition) if needed.
Moreover, the second document can be reused easily after modification of the
first document.
If the name has not been changed, it will even be automatically updated if you rexport the
A4 pages
An it can be reused for another similar project...
Sincerely
Silvain

Thanks Šarūnas, I see this option, however, when I use it, (both Facing Page
Right and Facing Page Left) the pdf is still exported in single pages. Is this
possibly including some sort of instruction for the PDF reader to parse ?
Or could this be a bug in my version of Scribus ? I'm on 1.5.5
This is one thing about using Facing Pages that is misleading. The only thing
that happens is that pages are placed in the display in Scribus as if they were
attached -- they're not, they're still individual pages.
To accomplish what you want to do for A4 pages, you would need to set up an A3
page in landscape mode, and divide the space into A4-sized areas, perhaps with
Guides to help you. If you were going to print this, it would require some sort
in imposition, but if you just want to be able to display pages side-by-side,
this will work by itself.
