If you need an index with reference to pages, I doubt that it will be easy or even possible with Scribus Personally, I would rather use a text editor like LibreOffice Then, if you need fancy formatting around your text, and/or printer-ready PDF of the book with cropmarks, it would be possible to place pages into Scribus as PDF exported from LibreOffice...

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 > > > ___ > Scribus Mailing List: [email protected] > Edit your options or unsubscribe: > http://lists.scribus.net/mailman/listinfo/scribus > See also: > http://wiki.scribus.net > http://forums.scribus.net -- Silvain Dupertuis Route de Lausanne 335 1293 Bellevue (Switzerland) tél. +41-(0)22-774.20.67 portable +41-(0)79-604.87.52 web: silvain-dupertuis.org <http://perso.silvain-dupertuis.org> -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
