Summary: Can Scribus output (.sla) be used with Velocity in a batch process to produce PDF?
Background: My goal is to be able to produce a very nicely formatted report with dynamic content (derived from an external source) via a batch process. I am considering a tool chain that involves Velocity and am wondering if Scribus is a suitable template design tool for this process. Questions: 1. Is anyone aware of whether (or not) Scribus can be used to produce a template with embedded Velocity VTL? [I am ok w/ hand tweaks to .sla if necessary to add VTL, but ideally would avoid that.] 2. If so, any known references or experiences to share or issues to look out for or consider prior to undertaking this? 3. Is sla2pdf the best (or only?) option to produce a PDF from .sla using a command line (batch) process? 4. Any other suggestions, techniques to offer (whether using Scribus or not). TIA, Bruce PS - Apologies if this was a "dumb" question...am new to scribus...I searched back a ways in archives and did not see this addressed... -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
