Scribus Experience

For this unit in technology, we have been learning to use the program Scribus.
Scribus is a great program used for desktop publishing, in which you can do very professional looking layout pages. Not just can you type, but you can also insert high quality images, shapes and many other setting equipment.

This is what a Scribus page would look like while you're using it:





















While using Scribus I learned to do many useful things that newspaper, and magazine article writers use everyday. Like for example I learned to do columns of text, to insert images, to insert shapes, and other more typical things like changing the letter color and font types. Another useful thing I learned to do was to convert the Scribus file into a PDF one in order to make it compatible with other computers. You can also do more complicated things, but since I learned to do everything on my own, I think I did quite a good job at learning at least the things I learned.

This are some photos of people using Scribus for different things:
