Non Scribus DTP?

[kneewax]

Can anyone recommend a non-scribus Desktop Publisher Program?

I have tried and tried with Scribus, but it crashes, it won't use the set printer margins and it cannot handle fonts like beatnik.

IT is just too-unstable and unpredicatable for my work...

any ideas?

The tried and true publishing software for Linux/Unix is TeX. My sister uses it all the time to publish academic papers. It has a learning curve but it is supposed to be the best. I think TeX Live and LaTeX are some of the good versions of TeX.

Latex is not really DTP, but it is great for publishing papers. There is not really an alternative for Scribus. I believe there are some commercial DTP such as Pagestream which have Linux versions.

I think I might run Serif Pageplus X2 in Vbox, I use Vbox for one or two apps I can't get running in Hardy. I can't get it to run in Wine, which is a shame because it is really good software.

Never mind....
