As you might recall, a couple of years ago, Nigel Ridley and I prepared an updated tutorial on "Getting Started with Scribus". The files for this are at:<br><br>http://www.oliveroot.net/Scribus/Getting_Started_With_Scribus_2008/<br><br>By helping to prepare that tutorial, I learned more about how to use Scribus than I would
have in just trying to use it for my immediate applications.<br><br>I am not sure how you plan to organize this effort, what format you would like to receive contributions, or where I could help (certainly proof-reading is one possible area).<br><br>The things I do regularly with Scribus:<br><br>1. Prepare a quarterly newsletter<br>2. Create paper greeting cards<br>3. Create photo books (I am still working on one which I hope to have printed by VioVio).<br>4. Prepare posters/flyers.<br><br>I would definitely not consider myself an expert by any means. I don't even remember how to do lots of those things I helped explain in the tutorial!!!<br><br>Let me know if you can use my help, and how.<br><br>Murray<br><br></td></tr></table><br>
