Hello all,

Using the Windoz latest stable Scribus 

What would be the easiest way to produce a 30 page booklet, with Left  & right pages with chopped corners .. chopped corners are when you get a book or booklet and the corners on the outside edge (the opening of the book or booklet, are cut off at 45degree angles, so you get a book that you open and on the opening side, you have NO corners, but you still have regular corners on the binding side where all the pages are bound or center stapled ...)

Here's what i am thinking, pls advise!!

Create a Master Pages and create a text frame with chopped corners on the outside
So in LEft pages, the chopped corners exist on the Left side, top n bottom (chopped off at 45degree angles)
On the right pages, same thing on the right side..

SO..if this is correct approach?? (is it the correct approach????) 
 how do i create a reusable master pages text frame and assign it to all 30 pages and THEN have it apply correctly to LEFT and RIGHT facing pages?? AND have the text flow from one to next pages...

Pls advise
