Scribus: a Reference

"Scribus: a Reference" by Greg Pittman (2012).

This is a work in progress, though I think it's usable in its current state. It is a different sort of book from most of the manuals that have been published, in that it is pretty strictly a reference. So far, at least, there is nothing about layout, mostly the mechanical aspects of various menu commands, context menus, and so on. I don't have any plans to release in anything other than a freely available eBook format. License: CC by SA (3.0), GPLv2

LGM 2013 Program

Here are two scaled-down versions of the LGM 2013 program, created using the materials supplied at [[1]].

I've tested both of them on a Google Nexus 7, with AdobeReader and an ePub reader. The ePub has the advantage of a clickable table of contents.
