Scribus' script can do that. I repost here an example that works for me.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
""" Create text frames on all pages """
import sys
try:
from scribus import *
except ImportError:
print "This script only runs from within Scribus."
sys.exit(1)
if haveDoc():
page = long(valueDialog('Begin','Where I begin ?'))
end = long(valueDialog('End','Where I stop ?'))
xp = float(valueDialog('x value', 'Please give me an x value for even
pages'))
yp = float(valueDialog('y value', 'Please give me an y value for even
pages'))
wp = float(valueDialog('w value', 'Please give me an width value for
even pages'))
hp = float(valueDialog('h value', 'Please give me an height value for
even pages'))
#messageBox("parametres", str([xp,yp,wp,hp]))
xi = float(valueDialog('x value', 'Please give me an x value for odd
pages'))
yi = float(valueDialog('y value', 'Please give me an y value for odd
pages'))
wi = float(valueDialog('w value', 'Please give me an width value for
odd pages'))
hi = float(valueDialog('h value', 'Please give me an height value for
odd pages'))
names=[]
while page <= end :
if page % 2 == 0 :
try:
gotoPage(page)
names.append(createText(xp, yp, wp, hp))
lockObject(names[-1])
except IndexError :
break
else:
try:
gotoPage(page)
names.append(createText(xi, yi, wi, hi))
lockObject(names[-1])
except IndexError :
break
page += 1
for n in range(len(names) - 1) :
try :
linkTextFrames(names[n], names[n+1])
except ScribusException :
messageBox("Erreur", "Due to error, linking of text
frames is left unfinished", ICON_WARNING )
break
else:
messageBox(TITLE, "No document open", ICON_WARNING)
