I just meant doing all of the layout for text and images in Illustrator, 
and using Scribus for simply placing the EPS and outputting a PDF. For 
long form documents that would mean building every page in Illustrator 
and placing each of them in Scribus to output as a book or whatever. 
Illustrator has no multi-page feature (major detriment as far as I am 
concerned).
