Here is a wiki article a user started about newspaper workflow, which may help with the overall concepts: http://wiki.scribus.net/canvas/Creating_a_Newspaper Beyond that, you're talking about the nuts and bolts of using Scribus, for which the online manual probably has the most up-to-date information (though maybe not complete) -- making text frames with columns and so on. Any way you approach it, there is a learning curve, as there should be with a program that allows a LOT of flexibility in your layout and contents. This isn't like a blog program that makes a lot of choices for you and you choose from a list of layouts. We also need some feedback from users to tell us which articles have erroneous information or are incomplete. Some articles are kept because we do find that people out there might still be using 1.3.3.x versions. Greg
