Here's a topical comment by Charles Ellertson, on a Typophile discussion thread about InDesign vs TeX :

XeTeX looks more & more attractive." via Frank Adebiaye - < http://fadebiaye.tumblr.com/post/50000549663/well-like-pagemaker-and-quark-indesign-will > On Wed, May 8, 2013 at 11:27 PM, Santiago Fern?ndez N??ez < santiagofn at gmail.com> wrote: > Maybe this is a bit off place, but: isn't this the perfect time to release > a campaing like the one did by OpenShot ( > > http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/421164014/openshot-video-editor-for-windows-mac-and-linux > ) > for raising funds, aiming to introduce new functionalities to Scribus? > Maybe the people who are considering quitting Adobe would make a little > donation to improve the now-visible alternative to InDesign. > Regards, > S. > > PS: Sorry for the grammar mistakes, if there's any; English is not my > native language. > > > On Wed, May 8, 2013 at 2:44 AM, Alexandre Prokoudine < > alexandre.prokoudine at gmail.com> wrote: > > > On Wed, May 8, 2013 at 9:31 AM, "Christoph Sch?fer" wrote: > > > > > Interesting, isn't it?
