<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>We are writing some books about our home
town. The project will be ongoing for more than 5 years with multiple releases.
All team members will use MS Word to create input. One person will mange DTP
jobs and create layout as well as input. First step will be a printed version,
maybe 200 copies. Later on we like to release into the www.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>We think 6 books will cover separate
subjects, each books will be based on 30 individual text files, each book will
have 300 colored photos, 500 pages for each book are estimated.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Table of content, index etc. should handled
central for all books, includes page numbering as well.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Multiple layers are requested:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Layer A – final text for print and
www<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Layer B – final photos for print and
www<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Layer C – text in work<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Layer D – photos in work<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Layer E – remarks and notices from
team members, status information as well<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>We looked into the Scribus manual, but we
are still not sure if this application will be ‘best fit’ for the
job. None of us has used scribes before, all of us have an IT background.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Scribus functionality, upcoming releases
over 5 years, size of the book(s) can be seen as critical…<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Maybe someone did a project like this and
can give us some feedback.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Any advice will be welcome, thanks.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
