question about open source DTP program

[McCallister, Michael (GE Healthcare, consultant)]

Deb,

I'm planning to use Scribus to put together a project portfolio to post
on my website and have in PDF form. I played with it quite a bit while
writing "openSUSE Linux Unleashed." It is much more stable than it was a
couple years ago, and should work quite well for brochures and such. It
doesn't have the long-document (book-type) features of FrameMaker, but
is good for the PageMaker/InDesign tasks.

HTH,

Mike

Subject: question about open source DTP program

Hi there.
 
Does anyone who has experience with a free open source DTP program at
www.scribus.net <BLOCKED::http://www.scribus.net>  care to comment on
it?
For example, is anyone at your company using it for brochures or
collateral?
