I use LaTeX and it works out really well if you have the right mindset. Affinity, InDesign, and Scribus are all popular layout programs too.

No. Because I honestly don't like the trend of putting everything in one big super app.
I like it if software does one thing well. 😊
Thats's one aspect of the new (canva) affinity suite I dislike. Still more user friendly than scribus and therefore my go to alternative to inDesign at the moment..

I mass converted to CMYK jpegs and then put them into scribus one by one and saved as PDF for print 😅
I tried a few other things first but nothing seemed to work quite right except that. It did force me to use a Japanese CMYK profile though for mass conversion so hopefully that won't cause problems

I've been using Apache OpenOffice for 4 years now and scribus for the last year.

I wonder if Word is up to the task of putting the actual pages together though. I'm not paying out for Indesign, thanks all the same, and Scribus looks great but not all that easy to use. MS Publisher was supplied free on this computer so I suppose that's another possible option and stuff and things

scribus is free, go get it off sourceforge and drop your fics into it and print some off

If you are laying out the zine in InDesign, Affinity, or Scribus, set your structural tags in the source layout before exporting. Trying to manually rebuild the tag tree and reading order in a post-export PDF editor is brutal, and any tiny edit wipes that work.

This is big for me!
While I am happy using @inkscape.org for my vector stuff, I really need something for layout and print design (and don't tell me I can use scribus. it's a pain in the ass). this would finally let me switch to linux on my main machine.
Fingers crossed it will happen soon...

Canva is bringing its Affinity software to Linux, saying that an official build for the platform is now in 'active development'.
Affinity is free, but not open-source software, offering raster, vector, photo processing and publishing tools in a unified app.

Scribus Automatic can be lossy: in my 1.6.1 test, both invented PNGs became JPEG and changed pixels, even at Maximum quality. ZIP retained their pixels. Check your actual build and representative export; PDF rendering/print untested.

Scribus ist wohl eine wirklich brauchbare Alternative! Sogar mit Seriendruck, wenn man sich ein entsprechendes Script herunterlädt ...
Dass der MS Publisher eingestellt wird, zipft mich dezent an. Mit dem habe ich so viele Einladungen, Flyer, Folder etc. für die Schule erstellt. Bin mal gespannt, ob es irgendwas Brauchbares geben wird, um Publisher-Dateien für andere Anwendungen handlebar zu machen ...
