[scribus] Issue with mail-merge

I have switched to Scribus 1.5.5 from Publisher for our non-profit 
newsletter. Aside from the learning curve, the real problem I have is 
the lack of mail-merge support. This is very important for using DTP for 
newsletters.

I have been using ScribusGenerator which works very well for up to four 
pages and only if the layout is set to 4-across. It does not work if the 
layout is stacked. This problem has been documented in ScribusGenerator 
since 2016 but a fix is not available.

Is there a way to set Scribus page layout to have any number of pages 
across?
