We are writing some books about our home town. The project will be ongoing for more than 5 years with multiple releases. All team members will use MS Word to create input. One person will mange DTP jobs and create layout as well as input. First step will be a printed version, maybe 200 copies. Later on we like to release into the www.
We think 6 books will cover separate subjects, each books will be based on 30 individual text files, each book will have 300 colored photos, 500 pages for each book are estimated. Table of content, index etc. should handled central for all books, includes page numbering as well. Multiple layers are requested: Layer A - final text for print and www Layer B - final photos for print and www Layer C - text in work Layer D - photos in work Layer E - remarks and notices from team members, status information as well We looked into the Scribus manual, but we are still not sure if this application will be 'best fit' for the job. None of us has used scribes before, all of us have an IT background. Scribus functionality, upcoming releases over 5 years, size of the book(s) can be seen as critical. Maybe someone did a project like this and can give us some feedback. Any advice will be welcome, thanks.
