Scribus: Open-Source Desktop Publishing --- The Official Scribus 1.3 Manual Now Open For Pre-Orders


After almost a year of collaborative effort, the official Scribus manual can now be pre-ordered from our publisher, FLES Books. Weighing in at just under 450 pages, this heavyweight was designed as a comprehensive guide to Scribus 1.3.3.x.

It's Here! The Official Manual

The long-awaited Scribus Official Manual is in its final stages of production, and we now have a site open for pre-publishing sales. For those who are not already aware, the manual began about one year ago as a collaborative effort. The lead authors, Gregory Pittman and Christoph Schäfer, worked with a number of other contributors on this important project.
The manual represents the most comprehensive source of information about using Scribus, and includes other useful information about DTP, fonts, color management, and more.
