Dear Friends of Scrbus,
I have found Scribus a great piece of software, easy to use, etc.
I would like to know how to layout a 130 page booklet, what are
the printers margins, i.e., my pages are set out as A5 per page,
what are the page margin the printer requires to run through their
machines and trimmed off when completion of the book?
Any help would be greatfully appreciated.
Stephen Chaffer
PS Thanks you all for the ideas you have sent around in the emails.
