Hi :) Thanks! :) It didn't quite work for my newsletter but it may open things up a bit for other documents we have struggled with here.
I'm beginning to see why Charles tried to find out about what sort of thing i'm aiming for. Scribus has a LOT of options and templates and stuff early on. Form over content, of course. I think i am going to struggle on with it a bit first to make a prototype and learn as i go. Then do the real thing another week. I had been thinking about using Draw as a stepping stone - using lots of linked text-boxes but i think it's going to be easier to just leap into Scribus from the start. I'm not sure how work-flow is going to go in the future but i have a feeling most of the content is going to be best done in Writer.
