Workshop
Design a newsletter in Scribus
What you need: Scribus
Time required: Two hours
Microsoft has announced that its desktop publishing software Publisher will no longer be supported after October 2026 (www.snipca.com/54914). That’s still some way off, but you can prepare for life after Publisher by getting familiar with an alternative such as Scribus. While it differs slightly in some respects, like Publisher you use frames to organise and position text and images, and use styles to define how text looks on the page. In other words, a lot of what you’ve already learned still applies. Here, we’ll show you how to get started with Scribus by using it to design a newsletter. Download it for free from www.scribus.net.
