TatiMitStiftIs there a good alternative for Adobe's InDesign that works on Linux? Since my PC is still broken (and probably won't be fixed, even though the warranty is still going til october), I am thinking about getting rid of Windows.

Another vote for Scribus. I've used this to create real books. Reminds me more of the old Quark XPress than InDesign. It's certainly capable enough.

Thank you!
Ooooo, interesting! Does Scribus have something like pragraph styles? I use them so much and don't know how to work without them (for books, that is).

It does! All the expected things. Bit fiddly to specify, I think, but also has a tool to edit text seperately as well as in-place.

Giuseppe Bilotta@t_robinart @snap2grid hello, another vote for Scribus and yes, it absolutely has paragraph styles, I use them extensively for the SPHERIC Newsletter. If you want to see it in action, https://www.spheric-sph.org/newsletters the last few issues were created in Scribus.
