Application: Scribus

What it is:

Scribus is an open source desktop page layout program with the aim of
producing commercial grade output in PDF and Postscript, primarily,
though not exclusively for Linux.

Features:

Scribus can be used for many tasks; from brochure design to
newspapers, magazines, newsletters and posters to technical
documentation. It has sophisticated page layout features like
precision placing and rotating of text and/or images on a page, manual
kerning of type, bezier curves polygons, precision placement of
objects, layering with RGB and CMYK custom colors. The Scribus
document file format is XML-based. Unlike proprietary binary file
formats, even damaged documents, can be recovered with a simple text
editor.
