[Scribus] Main Thrust of Scribus

[frank gaude']

What is the main purpose of Scribus, i.e., what area of DTP, page 
layout, newsletters, books, etc., is it being pointed?

To me programs such as PageMaker became dead at about the time InDesign 
1.5 was released some years back, no longer supported by Adobe. For all 
around graphic design it seems that InDesign CS (3.0) has it all. I'm 
not going to upgrade to 4.0, hoping to be able to use Scribus and Linux 
for my work.

Thanks for any replies. <smile>
