![]() ![]() Please let me repete that any help would be welcome. Neverthless, it's impossible to download correctly any of these. So I tried to find out other templates online, and this site seemed to be perfect. Now create a new document from File > New from Template, and at the bottom of the list you will find your Sheet of Cards. In Scribus, open the Front Business Card where it was downloaded, with File>Open, and then File>Save as Template, naming it Sheet of Cards, and close it. ![]() On the version 1.4.0 rc 5 version Scribus I have downloaded, there are only two templates for the newsletters, and both of them are rudimentary. Note the folder that it got downloaded to, for the next step. So, may I be able to take here your advices, it'd be great. ![]() It's just to explain why I have no aide in this difficult trial with DTP software. I cannot ask tips and aide around me, because it's a sort of power abuse from a superior who knows very well that I'm not a designer or a trainted computer person, but I'm just a scholar and teacher. The next edition of that must be done perfectly in two weeks. Because, at my faculty's express request, I'm from now onwards the responsible manager for all tasks related to its publishings, notably its trimestrial newsletters. So, I had to find a software of DTP quickly and master a minimum of its functions as quickly as that. Thank you for your indulgence and, of course, thank you in advance for your precious aide. So I may ask very stupid questions on this forum for a while. In fact, I came to Scribus somewhat accidentally, as I was looking for a free software which might not be too complicated and could be an alternative to a very expensive (for me) InDesign. I like already very much Scribus and hopefully will get more skilled in the future. It will add hyphens to some of your long words and make them fit nicely within the margins.I'm new on the forum and also have just started working on scribus. Instead, use the justify alignment for the body text. Rags: Rags happen when you use a left or right alignment, resulting in an uneven margin or “rag” on the side of the page. Tip: While we’re talking about space on the page, it’s time to ditch the double space after a period. You can go a little smaller (1.2) for nonfiction and a little bigger (1.5) for children’s books. You need enough space between lines so that your reader can keep their place. Line Spacing: Set your line spacing to 1.3. You can fix this by setting your indent to 0.3” or 0.5”. Pressing the tab key will usually result in an indent that's too large. The first paragraph of a chapter or after scene breaks are the only times you shouldn’t indent. Indents: In fiction or narrative nonfiction, always indent the first line of a paragraph. But with some programs, you’ll need to set them yourself. If you’re using a tool like Atticus, the settings are already in place, and you won’t need to do anything. You can do this by formatting your indents and spaces while avoiding rags. The next thing you need to do is style your pages to make them look professional. ![]()
