September 2018, “Staff Pick” Project of the Month – Scribus

By Community Team

For our September “Staff Pick” Project of the Month, we selected Scribus, a powerful desktop publishing software.

Scribus is an open source page layout program for Linux, FreeBSD, PC-BSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris, OpenIndiana, Debian GNU/Hurd, Mac OS X, OS/2 Warp 4, eComStation, Haiku and Windows. It has a combination of press-ready output and new approaches to page design. Underneath a modern and user-friendly interface, Scribus supports professional publishing features, such as color separations, CMYK and spot colors, ICC color management, and versatile PDF creation. It also has several unexpected touches, such as powerful vector drawing tools, support for a huge number of file types via import/export filters, emulation of color blindness and more.

Scribus was previously chosen Project of the Month in March of 2012 where developer Peter Linnell spoke about the project’s developments and direction. It’s a highly-rated project that has consistently garnered positive reviews and been featured several times as a Project of the Week here at SourceForge.
