hello
for now i-m understand, then my experience graphics, publisher, greeting card, 
with LOD is good but not TOP because LOD is not professional for VECTOR 
GRAPHIC, to be software high flexibilit and high professional is INKSCAPE, 
(there are many functional like as CAD, Rhino 3d for SNAP for node and path, 
shapes, page.  i say : it's besf for you is INKSCAPE, but LOD is good for base, 
LOD vs INKSCAPE: WINNER is INKSCAPE. LOD cant not compare to inkscape..becausa 
inkscape compare vs to illustrator (adobe) ok?scribus is for page magazine, 
book, high professional, LOD or LOW is good, but libreoffice will be 
enhancement ok?
but i like libreoffice againt to microsoft office (dollars) ok?

Actually, all I'm doing is laying out a greeting card.  The print shop
needs 1/8" margins, and I'm a stickler for detail.  I agree that Scribus
or a CAD program has more flexibility, but I like LO.

Seems like the consensus is that my suggestion is possible, but will
have to wait for funding.  Makes sense.
