Oh, absolutely. I don't mean 500-1000 pages all in one document; we'll be producing maybe 20 documents, each one 25-50 pages. But overall, that's the scope of the project. I've already got a script written to format the pages appropriately, and I'm desperately waiting for 1.3.4 or 1.3.5, when I can use character styles rather than hard-code the fonts I need, among some other refinements. Of course, *that* all depends on the scripting support in 1.3.4 and 1.3.5, which I gather hasn't been a priority. And I can understand the need to cater to 90% of the market before you cater to the other 10%. I'm just hoping when we actually need to start producing these things Scribus will be ready, or I'm going to have to find some other solution. -- Chris
