CentraLUG Meeting Monday, 6 June: Ed Lawson presents Scribus

[Ted Roche]

The monthly meeting of CentraLUG, the Concord/Central New Hampshire  
chapter of the Greater New Hampshire Linux Users Group, occurs on the  
first Monday of each month on the New Hampshire Institute Campus  
starting at 7 PM. (Note that we're likely to reschedule the July  
meeting as it falls on the Fourth.)

This month, we'll be meeting in Room 146 of the Library/Learning  
Center/Bookstore, http://www.nhti.net/nhtimap.pdf , marked as "I" on  
that map. Directions and maps are available on the NHTI site at  
http://www.nhti.edu. The main meeting starts at 7 PM, with Ed Lawson  
presenting Scribus, an open desktop publishing system. Open to the  
public. Free admission. Tell your friends.

Scribus is available from http://www.scribus.org.uk and is not just  
another pretentious word processor, but an entire pre-press system  
for producing high-quality documents suitable for publication. It  
will generate PDF files. It has a new "Scriptor" API for scripting in  
Python. Imports and exports SVG. Bells! Whistles! It runs natively  
under Linux and under X11 on Mac OS X and (in theory, anyway) CygWin  
on Windows. Scribus is distributed under the GPL.

More details at about this meeting and the group are available at  
http://www.centralug.org and http://www.gnhlug.org.

Hope to see you there!
