tables > And conversely, do you have any recommendations? Find out what your printer wants and don't be shy to ask. If you know what you're doing it will make things flow way nicer compared to a situation where you've at the very last minute found out the printer requirements and your layout needs a total redo (i'm kinda over dramatizing here). Few more things to avoid (having just tables up there was funnier imo) are transparency and Times new roman. There's no flattener in Scribus so if your printer wants pdf 1.3 (which they'll most likely want) you don't have any surprises coming when exporting to pdf 1.3 which doesn't support transparency. You probably have also noticed that Scribus isn't exactly like notepad which everybody will master in two minutes. It will take time to get used to it and find out the best practices. This mailing list is a good source as is our documentation at docs.scribus.net and wiki at wiki.scribus.net. There's also a lively irc channel at freenode called #scribus where you can ask about the issues you've found or just idle to learn from others.
