I'd be very interested in the answer to your question, John, as I do roughly
the same task with every issue.  While I only import about 20 pages, I have
found no way to make Scribus import the whole pdf document and paginate it
for me.  I use a piece of external software to split the large pdf document
into individual pages and import them onto the respective magazine page.
It's not a big job, but I would be interested in learning any other
technique to accomplish the task.
