I am trying my first real book interior in Scribus, and the page count will exceed 128. There will be text plus lots of black and white illos. I will use 1.5.0.
So what is the preferred workflow: 1. Type each chapter externally and import as text into a set of linked pages. Then export the chapter as pdf. 2. Type each chapter using story editor. Then export the chapter as pdf. 3. Type the whole book in one document. I am concerned about two things: speed/ease of production and size of the ultimate pdf. It seems to me that if I merge chapters using pdftk then there will be a lot of repetition in the pdf of fonts etc. My background is TeX, both pdftex and Context MK!V. -- John Culleton Wexford Press Free list of books for self-publishers: http://wexfordpress.net/shortlist.html PDF e-book: "Create Book Covers with Scribus" available at http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html
