If you need multipage and/or CMYK printing support, you should use Scribus. Otherwise, Inkscape is pretty straightforward to use.<br><br>btw, I am surely biased since I am an Inkscape developer. But you all probably agree that free software - just like any other tech that allows us to freely tinker with - should be heavily prioritized in a hackerspace.<br>

some of you, like danny, have a background in publishing. �what's the<br>
standard in desktop publishing software these days? �is there a<br>
cross-platform standard?<br>
<br>
also, if anybody wants to work with me in writing copy for a noisebridge<br>
tri-fold flyer, I think that's a simple project we can get done in a<br>
week. �it would be excellent to have the flyer on the reception desk<br>
that can be distributed to first-time visitors to the space. �we can<br>
print batches of them as-needed on the new color laser printer.<br>
<br>
i also have another project i'm going to work on. �it's called "My First<br>
Circuit Hacking". �Its a kid's book introducing all the different types<br>
of electronic components (capacitors/resistors/regulators/l.e.d.'s) and<br>
equipment (soldering irons/multimeters/etc). �the book will be sold for<br>
a $1 dollar donation to noisebridge at circuit-hacking mondays.<br>
