SCRIBUS - Open Source Desktop Publishing
IainB:
I have also downloaded and installed Scribus from the link @40hz gave.
It looks pretty good, but I've not had much time to play with it so far.

I'm using Scribus today to create a flyer for work. not bad at all! One problem so far: printing to a pdf has issues with transparencies. All the transparency settings I spent so long tweaking, they just print as opaque blocks.

Thanks. The solution was to export to pdf and NOT print to pdf using the regular printer options.

Nothing special. But it was easy to slap together and I didn't have to bug IT to install Illustrator or Photoshop and all the headches/justifications/third-degree nonsense that goes along with it. And I know it looks like an engineer put it together, my artistic side sleeps during the day so it won't get me in trouble at work.
