I'm trying to write a script using the Python scripting API to make it easier to produce A4 booklets from a bunch of A5 pages. In other words, I want to print two portrait A5 pages side-by-side on a single lanscape A4 page, placing the pages in the right order so that when they're stacked and stapled they will produce a booklet.
My initial approach to creating this script was to create a new document with A4 pages, then simply select all the objects on each page of the current A5 document and copy/paste them to the right page and location on the A4 document. However, I can't find any copy/paste functions in the Python API reference at http://docs.scribus.net/index.php?lang=en&page=scripterapi . Am I missing something obvious? Or, if copy-and-paste isn't available at all in the Python API, does anyone have a different suggestion for how to go about a booklet-making script? -- Robin Munn Robin.Munn at gmail.com GPG key 0x4543D577
