<pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">Thank you, Mr. Pittman, for replying to my email with a lot of information.
So is there an option to have a list of words fed into scribus as a
separate text file and have that list as Index? Yes, references,
bibliography, et al, have to be entered manually. But any shortcuts
available to make the work easier?

Hi Rajib,
Scribus is a frame-based layout program. So you create pages, then on those pages place your text inside text frames. For the main body of your book, you would presumably have a series of pages with the frames linked from one page to the next, and your text imported from a file. You could then add one or more pages to the end with text frames into which you load your index list from a file.
There aren't built-in shortcuts to this process.
Greg
