I am new to Scribus, so I don't know if this is possible. What I would try to do in this particular situation is create a document with a landscape master page that is double the size of a single page, and divide it into left and right side for each language. Specifically, if your page size is A4, create a A3 landscape document, and then use a guide to divide the page in two sides: left for Lao and right for English. The left and right page numbers will be in sync as you desire, but I am not sure how you would output the document in a way that you can use for printing. HTH, Jorge
