[Scribus] album script (paperback)

[francesco fantoni]

I'm working on a modified version of scribalbum.py, tailored to produce
a 6x9 in phot-book to be printed using Lulu POD service.
It takes 2 pictures each page, sees if they're landscape or portrait
oriented, check if you're in a left or right page and puts the frames
into the page following a pre-determined scheme, reads original image
size and resizes the pictures to fit into the frames.
it works quite well at a first test, but i still have to had pictures
labels. When it first displays the resulting document, pictures are not
displayed with the correct size, but as it's actually as it is supposed
to be, if you save and reopen the file everything appears ok.
Do some of you know if it is possible to make the frame fit picture size
using the python api?
i attach the alpha version of my script
(the size of the paper is larger than 6x9 to give some bleed, according
to lulu staff suggestion)
